Some thought Makhadzi missed Eugene's point:
@Gagu10111 remarked:
"Welele nakoke... Please guys explain it to her. She missed the whole point."
@MsibiTshepo94 explained:
"You missed his point, totally. In an era yabo Merriam Makaba, Bru Hugh and the likes were also entertainers but somehow they were still aware on what was happening around them and they incorporated that in their craft to raise political awareness something our generation lack."
@BenguXolan agreed:
"There is nothing hate about what Eugene said, while you celebrate what makes ur ppl happy, make sure you still have a country that allows people to be happy, cause soon people won't even be able to come to your shows because it's unsafe or they can't even afford a R150 ticket."
@MzPine1 commented:
"I celebrate all Limpopians, incl YOU. I clearly understood what Eugene was saying & it has nothing to do with Skomota. He says we SAs must focus on the BIG picure. Don't take it personally
