"I shared these comments about the Milnerton High assault on my Instagram stories, many of you asked me to put it on my timeline… (sound isn’t sunk well), looks like one of those Kung Fu films."
In the video, Ngesi says he wants the high school boys to be punished and held accountable.
"But what you guys are asking for, I’m not seeing the same kind of passion for someone who stole two billion rand at Tembisa hospital,” said Ngesi.
Ngesi adds that South Africans shouldn't have double standards, and he doesn’t believe the boys should have punishments that are gonna destroy their entire lives.
The actor believes that the boys should be suspended, do community service, and go for anger management training.
"But telling me they should lose their entire lives, no guys,” said Ngesi.
The viral social media video of the Milnerton High School students shows the boys bullying another schoolmate by assaulting him.
The Citizen reports that parents of the school protested outside the school premises this week. The mother of the boy being bullied recently told the media that her 16-year-old son had completed his chemotherapy.

"The kid already won a battle against cancer, and now he is bullied. When will he ever catch a break? Everything needs to be taken from those kids. I hope something comes from the criminal case. If that were your kid facing that, you would've been singing a different tune.What about the trauma that kid has to carry for the rest of his life? They need to face dire consequences, assault needs jail time or expulsion before exams, and they need to learn!"
