SA reacts after Nota Baloyi targets Malema's late mum
The post gained traction on X and sparked a cocktail of reactions. While some agreed with Nota and fired shots at Malema’s late mom, others criticised Baloyi for his comments. Several netizens asked why Nota Baloyi hated Julius Malema, with others accusing him of using Malema’s name for clout.
Here are some of the comments:
@anyautosa advised:
"Nota, look at you and look at him, bro, even Trump, Elon know him. Look at what he achieved as a youth in ANC, look at what he did with EFF. I'm not an EFF fan, but Julius is not in your league. Play with your podcast friends, that's your level."
@Sjava102 asked:
“Why are you so personal when it comes to Julius Malema?”
@Muvhango_Besafe claimed:
“This one really wants Malema’s attention, and he is not giving him 😂”
@KodwaRSA criticised:
“Of course you will blame a mother who probably never touched a gun!”
@Mditshwer alleged:
“And these kind of people raised by single mothers, the way they praise their mothers is on another level. It’s like 2Pac who grew up on the streets with thugs yet praising the mother as if she gave excellent guidance. If it were not for music, 2Pac would be rotting in jail.”
@Tawana575 criticised:
“You will never be in his standard, as long as you can't afford to buy a fridge according to Shimza.”
@NotThatDip asked:
“Nota, what is this 😭?”
@EmilyInSpain1 argued:
"That’s an insult to his mother. The way Malema has been swearing at old people, no mother will raise a child like that. He’s a self-made arrogant man, whose arrogance was amplified by his cult members."
