Jub Jub accused of dodging R35 000 debt

TikToker Likhona Sukume alleges that Jub Jub borrowed R50 000 for an event he hosted in December 2024. To date, Jub Jub has only managed to pay R15 000 and is struggling to pay the outstanding amount.

Jub Jub is allegedly unfazed by Likhona’s TikTok video, stating that he has faced worse scandals in the past and survived. In a recording, he allegedly threatened to take unspecified action against Likhona unless he apologised for posting his house.

“Ask him whether he wants his money or if he wants to go to court. He must apologise, otherwise he'll be sorry for posting my house,” Jub Jub allegedly said.

In an act of desperation, the TikTok user even approached Jub Jub’s bosses at Moja Love. Unfortunately, the TV station distanced itself from the matter, stating that it was a personal matter between the Uyajola 9/9 presenter and Likhona.

After sharing his experience with Jub Jub, he realised his issue was just the tip of the iceberg. Other TikTok users flooded the comments, claiming the rapper owed them too. One couple even claimed that he owed them a staggering R200 000.

Likhona Sukume claims that Jub Jub's pattern of non-payment is evidence of criminal behavior and has vowed to report a criminal case against him.

“I am going to pursue it criminally. There are people he's owing. Those to me are elements of criminality. I was the one who was victimised. It's my money and it's my debt that is accumulating,” he said.

This isn’t the first time Jub Jub has hogged headlines for the wrong reasons.

Speaking on why the charges against Jub Jub were withdrawn, his lawyer Adv Ntsako Baloyi cited inconsistencies in du-Pont's story, including a previous interview in which she stated Jub Jub was not the perpetrator and threatened to sue if such claims were published.

The lawyer also pointed out the lack of medical evidence and reliable testimonials from witnesses, suggesting that the former Muvhango star's accusations were an abuse of the legal system.
