Shimza pays peeps to troll Nota

On X (Twitter), Shimza paid a social media user for roasting Nota Baloyi after they begged him for R10 to pay towards her studies. However, Shimza sent her R2000, all because she roasted Nota.

This was after Nota and Shimza threw insults at one another. Shimza started it by trolling the Baloyi surname, saying it is very on-brand.

“They always stand together, guess his surname is on brand.”

Nora fired with a host of insults and used explicit language.
