“Assassination of character. A credible journalist can't make a caption without posting a video link he mentioned. That's why he has blocked the comments.”
@GatvolAuthority asked:
“Thetha phela, what’s the story?”
@PIET_VANWYK predicted:
“Misuzulu will be dethroned by his own nation. In Setswana, they say ‘Kgosi ke Kgosi ka Setshaba’”
@Waltz42747233 remarked:
“But whoever is recording him must pay.”
@bankz088 alleged:
“They will expropriate your Natal properties without compensation for sharing propaganda.”
@NMaluleke012 asked:
“Tired of pretending what does SMH! Mean?”
@FollowMakhi commented:
“They are lying; they can't wait to publish if there was anything sort of. We know they hate him😭”
@RevTPDips argued:
“Succession plan is crucial. You cannot lead as if you will live forever. Preparation is key. This boy was not prepared for the throne. He clearly does not have a strong support system or he is too stubborn to listen. He needs help with alcohol abuse/addiction. Quick!”
