“There are so many mean comments under this tweet. I just wanna say there’s nothing wrong with Skomota, ke motho le yena, and I don’t find him disgusting 🙏🏾♥️. I just thought it was funny that he wanted a kiss on the lips.”
In the video, Skomota, who had previously been criticised for groping another woman, was hugging the woman from behind as if he was choking her and kissing her several times on the forehead. Someone taps Skomota to let the woman go from his tight embrace.

Social media users filled the comments with mixed reactions. While some found the interaction and Skomota’s attempt to kiss the woman on the lips hilarious, some criticised Skomota for not respecting boundaries.
Here are some of the comments:
@layeredlemonade criticised:
“You don't have to apologise, approaching people with the intent to kiss them on the lips, knowing good and well that the two of you do not have that kind of behaviour is degenerate behaviour on HIS end. Do not double down. His behaviour is uncouth.”
@samo20074 asked:
“Isn’t this harassment? Or are we giving him the benefit of the doubt cause he’s clearly special needs?”
@anasuachara said:
“It is good to speak kindly even when others are being harsh. Humour does not have to mean hate, and it is possible to enjoy a joke while still respecting the person involved.”
@HairyQuagmire shared:
“Skomota is a very affectionate person. I've seen how he greets guys, too. He hugs his heart out. Full of love. I don't think he meant any malice.”
@Mthoka2 highlighted:
“What you wrote before and this video are two different things.”
