Actress, Ama Qamata spoke on the matter, saying it was unfortunate that the Miss SA contestant faced backlash and not the government that participated in the fraudulent scheme.
Twitter (X) user Compaqllow called the actress to order, saying her family has benefitted from the corruption she was speaking against:
"Not you, Ama. Talking about corruption when your 'entrepreneurial' mom has drained the Eastern Cape government dry. Not you, sit this one out."
In response to the comment, Ama posted a screenshot of her mom's reaction to the allegations, in which she said she has never worked with the government:
"I have never done business with the government all my life, but I love her level of boldness in her statement. I just wish she used it positively."
