Fans wish Tsekeleke happy birthday amid health crisis
Responding to reports of Tsekelele's health, netizens expressed heartbreak, but they also cheered him on his big day. Some fans noted that on the Moja Love reality show, Tsekeleke's girlfriend, Black Cat, complained about his weight gain. This put a strain on their relationship.
Some fans noted that he was not in high spirits during the episode, implying that the illness started a little while ago.
Mahene Patrice Benzane shared:
"Happy birthday, Tseki. Can someone assist the brother with weight loss? I am definitely sure that it will enhance his health and prolong his existence on this earth. That can be a transformation story that still makes him money instead of relying on his obesity for relevance. Please, good people, assist our fellow brother. More especially, dieticians, fitness experts, etc."
Tsakane Ngwane joked:
"The hospital is encouraging weight gain; they have size ya tsekie ya pj's. Happy blessed birthday, malume tsekeleke."
Mkhize Khabazela Mavovo noted:
"If you look at his recent videos, you can see that he is not well, even before the cancellation of the party. Speedy recovery tseki."
Olga Dubz was saddened:
"He didn't look or sound ok to be honest in the past days. Speedy recovery to him, and please allow him to see his Bheket when he comes back."
