However, recently, she trended for the wrong reasons, as many netizens weren't impressed with the new collaboration she had bagged for her event, Zee Nation. The NYDA announced earlier that they had partnered up with the House DJ for her upcoming first event, Zee Nation after she claimed that the South African youth was unemployable.

The organisation shared a media statement about the partnership on its Twitter (X) page. The statement stated that the organisation's collaboration with the DJ is to empower young people by offering them experience.

The statement was captioned:

"The @ZeeNationFest and the National Youth Development Agency (NYDA) are pleased to announce collaboration partnership aimed to providing valuable skills development opportunities, through hands-on training to the National Youth Service participants, under the Presidential Youth Employment Intervention. This partnership seeks to empower young people by offering them experience in planning and executing a prominent and cultural event celebrating creativity and innovation."

Many netizens unimpressed with DJ Zinhle getting the funding

Many netizens weren't with Zinhle getting the funding after the statement she made about young people, and some were happy for her:

@Encephalogist said:

"Instead of creating job opportunities you'd rather sponsor a celebrity to do for you."

@de275ml responded:

"She said South African youth don't qualify to be salespeople, yet you go ahead in partnering with her is a disgrace and a mistake! As young people, we must boycott that event."

@stardom2358 wrote:

"Prominent people are the ones benefiting from the government, they effortlessly get so much help that they don't even require..."

@itumeleng_ba questioned:

"Hao I thought we all agreed nobody wants this? Wasn’t Zinhle saying we’re unemployable or something of the sort?"

@am_sc17 commented:

"Prominent individuals will always be the ones who benefit and not Tshepo from Diepsloot."
