Fans accuse MacG and Sol Phenduka of being insensitive

Fans felt the Podcast & Chill hosts were not supposed to ask Ciza about his parents because he is just a child. Many felt the questions were insensitive despite both TK Nciza and Nhlanhla Mafu moving on. Nhlanhla allegedly tied the knot recently, while TK Nciza is allegedly dating model and socialite Faith Nketsi.

@"Mangi" Simangele Mazibuko said:

"For those concerned about Ciza being asked about his parents' divorce, I understand your concern. However, there's nothing wrong with discussing it, and he responded with maturity and honesty."

UDSK commented:

"Ciza is smart and mature, answering questions, which shows Grootman TK has been training the boy well."

"They are not interviewing him about his career. They want a scandal about his parents' marriage."

@wendywendzz added:

"They must interview the parents so they can tell their story about their separation, not the child. That's wrong of Mac G and Sol, for that matter."

@Khaya said:

"The interview could have been more interesting if the questions posed were about his music career. 😫😫😫"
