After the drug bust, the publication also reported that the MojaLove boss saw a suspicious-looking man outside his house in Johannesburg who pretended to be lost.

The spokesperson of the channel, Nonzwakazi Cekete, said:

"The matter is currently under the jurisdiction of law enforcement agencies. As a channel, we are committed to operating without succumbing to fear in the face of the devastating impact of drugs on our communities.
