Katlego Maboe's singing video goes viral

Is there anything Katlego Maboe cannot do? At this point, Mzansi is looking forward to an album from the star because he has the voice for it. The star has shared several videos showcasing his singing abilities with covers of songs like Craig David's Unbelievable and the Tswana hymn that caught Mzansi's attention.

A new video of the Deal or No Deal host singing a gospel song was recently reposted on X (Twitter) by controversial entertainment blogger, Musa Khawula. Khawula did not hold back in his caption, accusing Katlego Maboe of being a deadbeat father who does not take care of his son with his estranged ex-girlfriend, Monique Muller. The caption read:

"Katlego Maboe singing gospel as if he isn't a useless deadbeat who is being dragged by his baby's mother, Monique Muller, to maintenance court in Cape Town because he isn't prepared to financially support their son."
