Nzuzo Njilo’s age
Although his exact birthdate and month have not been confirmed, his birth year is 1993, making him 29 years old as of 2022.
Is Nzuzo Njilo married?
Nzuzo Njilo’s wife is none other than Faith Nketsi, a South African model, influencer, social media personality and socialite that is also a part of a local dance group named 'Pro-Twerkers'.
The duo kept their relationship under wraps since its inception. Faith publicly stated that they saw each other casually on and off throughout the years before ultimately falling in love during the lockdown in 2020. She also never disclosed her engagement or marriage until after the fact. Nzuzo Njilo’s ex-girlfriend is not known.
Nzuzo Njilo’s job
He owns his own truck company and is involved in his father's business endeavours, including the Themba Njilo Foundation in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal and Nduduzo Funeral Services, also located in KwaZulu-Natal.
He recently came under fire after being accused of fraud by Johannesburg company owners. According to multiple reports, he swindled them out of nearly R1 million in early 2022. His business partners, Blaine Evans and James Stephens, accused him of not upholding his end relating to an R978 104 botched business deal in March. He was allegedly arrested for this.
Evans stated that he and Stephens had agreed to buy copper concentrate from Njilo’s NN Chrome Mining company through their company, Lund Industries. The money was deposited, but they never received the order of copper. The matter seems to be ongoing, and his accounts have since been frozen.
Assets
Nzuzo Njilo’s house, which he shares with his partner Faith, is located within the affluent area of Hyde Park in the Gauteng province of South Africa. Nzuzo Njilo’s cars can be seen on his now-defunct Twitter page, showing he had substantial money throughout his life thanks to his family's success.
Nzuzo Njilo’s net worth
Knowing about all of his successful endeavours, how much is he worth? His value is estimated at anywhere between $5 million and $10 million, but the exact amount is unknown.
There seems to be no current resolution on Nzuzo Njilo's ongoing legal issues, so keep an eye on social media to see if his name trends again for any immediate updates.
