"Just shut up. Your contradictory statements are insulting. We're not dense. The real problem is people like you refusing to hire our youth as you admitted earlier because you don’t want to spend on training. According to you they should already have the skills. Preach to yourself."

"You insulted the youth which are predominantly most of your fans, you lack awareness skill when you open your mouth."

@boipelomoraka_ added:

"I literally see nothing wrong here. we are under skilled because of lack of opportunity. Hai ngeke guys, it is true."
