Dimpho Mokgotho's run-in with the law
The host of YFM's weekend show, D Spot with Dimpho, was interrupted by the police, who had a pressing matter to attend to. The embarrassing moment took place on Sunday during her show, and according to ZiMoja, it's all because of a man.
The DJ is reportedly engaged in a dispute over a man with another woman, her ex-friend named Masego Kepadisa.
It is reported that Dimpho had been sharing worrisome information about Masego with the man in question. After being bad-mouthed for some time, Masego decided to seek help from the authorities.
Dimpho's radio show interrupted
According to the news outlet, the source mentioned that police arrived during her radio show, however, they waited until she was done. This comes after YFM management asked them to let her finish her slot as they had no replacement.
"When the police [arrived], Dimpho was still on air and she couldn't leave the studio unattended. It was embarrassing because there were other people in the studio, like the technical staff.
"The police were patient enough as they waited for more than an hour until the show was over."

"South African women will never beat the allegations because their love for rich and married men is like a drug to them."
@Okuhle:
"I hàte this thing, I really hate it. There are a lot of men out here, and you're here humiliating yourself over one man?!!! All just because he has money?! His money!!! Like how nonsensical.
"Can you be to fight over a man you can easily replace by opening your DM? Now the whole South Africa will know that you're that desperate that you can even badmouth and insult another woman over a man that doesn't have sexual discipline! He has shown you that he doesn't care about you, so why do that to yourself?"
@TaThera:
"Problem is they all want the rich men who unfortunately are a scarce resource in Mzansi."
