Somizi Mhlongo dragged into Chris Brown saga

In an earlier report, Briefly News shared online reactions to Somizi Mhlongo being thrown under the bus over the Chris Brown concert saga.

This was after the show was bashed by an anti-GBV organisation over the singer's history of domestic violence, and Mzansi wanted them to keep the same energy with local stars as well.
