“I have not done anything wrong or different. If you guys are used to being treated like (the K word), it's fine, be treated like that, I'm not used to being treated like that. Not me!” he exclaimed.
Nota then bragged about his riches and acquired fame, saying he is a self-made black man who does not deserve to be treated less than.
"You guys have called security on me. Have I been violent, did I harass anyone? No I have'nt," he said then proceeded to point the camera on the manager who called the security guards on him.
It is unclear when the fight started or what caused it, as the clip only starts when Nota tells them to come correct.

His fight seemed to have been with the manager; however, the staff also chimed in and called him dramatic. They teased him for only tipping them R40, saying they do not need it.
The clip cuts when the security guard walks to their table and asks them what the matter was.
Mzansi laughs at Nota
South Africans offered varying opinions on the Nota issue, with some siding with him, while others defended the staff members.
@PMOTION5 said:
"You won't be surprised if Nota can call Home Affairs to check their citizenship status. You find out that all of them are from Zimbabwe, which is why they don't understand our law in this country. They come here to be slaves and paid change."
@StefkoolA reacted:
"I wonder how many times he used that word @SAHRCommission, you're up."
@PHASTARICO argued:
"One thing we need to appreciate about this place is that it is employing South Africans, not foreigners. Nota must go and do this in places that hire foreigners. It's a risk for these workers to side with him, while he will take the plane back to Joburg, leaving them unemployed again."
Nota shares experience in Zimbabwe
In a previous report from Briefly News, Nota Baloyi opened up about an incident he claims happened during a trip to Zimbabwe.
The podcaster alluded to not being welcome in the country and shared a bizarre story of being given a deadline to leave; however, social media users were not convinced.
