South Africans react to MacG's apology

@mutssy_Salani replied:

"Apology not accepted! He should keep his lame apology to himself."

@DisaRoboro wrote:

"It's good to see MacG taking accountability and apologizing publicly, the comments he made about Minnie were unacceptable, and it's a step in the right direction for him to address it on his platform. Hopefully, this apology leads to a genuine change in how such topics are handled on the show, respect to Minnie for standing her ground, and let's hope this sets a precedent for more responsible discourse."

@yangamessi said:

"Just know his bag was almost affected if he has to apologise someone forced him that’s my take."

@TheGeopol replied:

"“She said some things; I said some things” MacG has a bit of Scotts Maphuma in him."

@IamEriOluwa responded:

"First time hearing MacG say sorry. This is huge and a win for the African community."

@nyambenis said:

"Why is he apologising, what must we do will all the hate and anger we have for him."

@Melo_Malebo wrote:

"Minnie should go to the podcast and show young women how to defend themselves from bullies. Being the bigger person is not gonna help in this case."

@LisileM replied:

"He didn’t take accountability. He didn’t even apologize to Minnie but to “women he might have offended”.

@Kane_GM9

"We forgive you; we forgive you before you apologized like the way Mandela forgave the boeres without them apologizing."
