Khoza went viral after calling on Shebeshxt to talk to the youth about voting in the 2024 general elections.
“Just keep quiet and stop seeking fame by punching down on people trying to achieve what you failed to because they don’t fit your narrative of an ideal artist.”

South Africans disapprove of Thambo's attack
Unfortunately, Thambo's attempt at coming to Shebeshxt's defence backfired.
MJ Tseleko said:
“Just like any other EFF member, analysing and contextualising is the last thing in mind: The first this is to fight and defend that which you don’t even understand.”
KG wrote:
“You’ve been waiting for him. Unfortunately, your response and his tweet are unrelated. You made sure that you said something, anything, context or not. Shameful.”
GeeMab pointed out:
“Kwedini, you are not normal upstairs. No wonder you are a permanent student.”
Mduhh remarked:
“You misunderstood this, Sinawo. Eugene suggested that this artist on the poster should use influence to encourage the youth to vote.”
Mthimkhulu observed:
“As an EFF voter, Sinawo, I find you to be nauseating to the highest level. I hope your attitude doesn’t escalate you to the highest levels of this movement’s leadership roles.”
Fanele advised:
“Delete this tweet. You don’t get it.”
Maimane Mike defended Thambo:
“Finally, someone told him the truth. This guy thinks he has a PhD in everything.”
IG: Joy-Zelda exclaimed:
“Eugene Khoza needs to be stopped, and so must Sol Phenduka. They are so annoying.”
Shebeshxt responds to Eugene Khoza's statements
