• South African social media influencer Mandisi Tshingana has since stepped in and helped raise funds for the pupil

The saying, it takes a village to raise a child has been echoed by social media users after a child was humiliated by his school teacher.

Influencer raises funds for young pupil

Since the video dropped, Mandisi, who previously raised money for Nandi Nyembe's burial, went on a rampage and dragged the school teacher. He then advocated for people to chip in whatever money they can to buy the child pie. But out of generosity, people donated R38,000 for the young pupil, and the funds are growing.

"A sad video."

@SthembiD questioned:

"When the spirit of loss and destruction locates you, it makes you do seriously horrible things. Why would a teacher do something so evil?"

@StheNgcobo_ stated:

"I wonder what the real intention was here; some people are just heartless."

@SthembiD shared:

"We must find this horrible human being and must be fired. Maybe then she will understand that some parents abanayo imali for extra meals they request in school. So annoyed."

@LeboMKeswa was angry:

"Ooohhh no man, this is ever so inhumane and evil. The worst thing is she’s taking the video herself. Let’s find the child and assist, and he needs to be removed from her class with immediate effect. Bloody devil."
