DJ Sbu rejected R1B for a MoFaya buyout
Award-winning artist DJ Sbu revealed in an interview that he rejected a R1 billion buyout for MoFaya. In his explanation, he shared that his business partners were divided over this decision, but he mentioned why he decided not to sell.
On Monday, 20 April, DJ Sbu revealed that they were given an opportunity for a billion, but they turned it down.
"The last opportunity we had was for R1B,"
DJ Sbu further emphasised that business partners wanted to cash in on the business:

"If you are willing to be humble or patient enough, and continue on that struggle, they will come back with more. There is never anyone who will offer you less than this. But this requires patience, heart and courage, as well as a solid mindset."
