"Phakelumthakathi accuses Maskandi artists of sleeping with other men in Sandton while he and his crew are out fighting for the country."

In the clip, he repeatedly references Sandton, appearing to contrast what he frames as his own sacrifices with the allegedly comfortable and morally questionable lifestyle of certain Maskandi figures. His tone was heated throughout, and the delivery drew comparisons to a tabloid exposé rather than a straightforward public statement.

The video split the internet almost instantly. Some viewers found humour in the accusations, while others were less than impressed by the approach.

@NathiG17016 sided with him, writing:

"He's telling the truth though. Lol athi bayabhejwa eSandton 😂😂😂"

@Brus15465 was more sceptical, saying:

@nike_yada kept it short:

"He losing so much he has to insult people to get their help 😂😂😂"
