Mzansi slams Ukhozi for not naming iPlan as SOTY
Many people on social media and outside the platforms were fuming when Ukhozi FM named Umjolo by Khuzani as Song Of The Year. Many have come up with theories and made numerous accusations about the voting system as a Maskandi song once again ushered people into the new year, even though it was undeserving.
@Solphendukaa said:
"UKhozi just proves every year that our voting culture in South Africa is poor. We like something but don’t vote for it to win. We don’t like something but still don’t put in the effort of voting it out."
Another peep said:
"Dear other provinces. I sincerely apologize. Y'all were right, uKhozi FM have ruined the song of the year concept. It is no longer a popularity contest."
Mzansi threatens to boycott Ukhozi FM
