Mzansi reacts to DJ Sbu's sentiments
Commenting under the video, netizens argued that they did not believe what DJ Sbu said.
@Towaz91 argued:
"Which village are you talking about? Let's keep it simple: I will only worry about my family."
@DonaldQuadratic explained:
"A village is that next-door neighbour that borrowed your parents' money to help you go. Village is that next door that one day assisted with food at home..village is that uncle who came with university prospectus....village is that local teacher who supported you."
@zama_hg said:
"Those who grew up in privilege won't relate. And they will challenge this. But anyway thank you for raising it. I agree."
@monde_mabhoza mentioned:
"He’s absolutely right, I hate that nonsense thing called black tax."
@Mankaswa shared:
"Thank God my daughter did not go through all that. Lovely part is, i don't want Her to help me. It was my duty to make sure she is well off."
@UncleAshley_ said:
"People talk about this topic without understanding. There are people who are being extorted by their parents. I have a friend who can't even buy themselves shoes or clothes but you're working. Lost girlfriends because at his home they are demanding not even asking or him doing."
