“We need to use corporal punishment towards these people making a mockery of the house of God. They will never do this nonsense at a Muslim Mosque. They take Christians for granted.”
Gcinani Msibi said:
“Yazi kusukela nje Ngo 2020 Ayi Sikubone konke Akukho Esingakuboknanga... ayi Nkosi sale usubuya Lord.”
Lwando Phunga-lomzondo Ngoma replied:
“Ngiyahamba South Africa.”
Nonkululeko Mtetwa reacted:
“Guys even as a cameraman I was gonna laugh so much.”
Dancing Spiderman makes his way to national TV
Meanwhile, Briefly News reported that a dancing Spiderman has made his way to national television. While the local spidey dancing to amapiano music is nothing new to avid social media users, the sight of one on a serious news programme definitely had Mzansi reeling.
@TumWierdKid shared the hilarious snaps, which got South Africa talking. He certainly felt the funny dancer was making a mockery of the adored superhero and couldn't help sharing his views.
"Marvel needs to sue South Africa for defamation of character,” he sarcastically wrote.
While some social media users agreed with the passionate statement, others took the time to criticise the very adult-themed dancer for breaking it down in a children's costume.
