On Sunday, 5 April 2026, Lebo Keswa came for everyone, dishing out insults like Oprah Winfrey giving away gifts.
After making serious accusations against Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema, Lebo Keswa shifted her focus to one of his ardent supporters and author Jackie Phamotse.
Keswa and Phamotse had a heated exchange on X (Twitter) after the latter stepped in to defend EFF member of Parliament, Sixolise Gcilishe.
Phamotse blasted Keswa for taking a swipe at Gcilishe. The post was captioned:

“Hey @LeboMKeswa, unfortunately, you have landed on the wrong door; that’s my sister. It’s extremely difficult to accept your profound moral bankruptcy. Your maggot behaviour constitutes a scavenging of any human that you think is below your countless howlers. Silence in the face of such predation does not equate to acquiescence. Grandiloquent rhetoric and vociferous protestations cannot transmute perfidy into virtue, nor can cunning sophistry obfuscate the disgrace inherent in such behaviour. Wickedness amplified by volume remains wickedness still.”
Keswa fired back and mentioned Phamotse’s conviction for defamation. She also questioned the BARE franchise writer’s claim that Gcilishe is her sister. Lebo Keswa also suggested that Jackie Phamotse defrauded a guesthouse in Midrand.
The post was captioned:
“Hey @JackiePhamotse, is the Electronic Monitoring Device (EMD) that Basetsana put on you off your feet now, and you think you can tell me shxt about a “Sister” whose bed I’ve slept on and took care of? Where the FCK were you, Sister, when she was twice in ICU, and I stood by her side? Go and pay a bill you left at Mamolatos guesthouse in Midrand after LYING TO HER before you write this prostitution Jollofina English to me☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽. By the way, I’m a Rhodes graduate 👩🎓 NOT A PRSTITUTE that goes around claiming to be what I’m not and destroying people's lives for clout!”
