A viral video of an orange Lamborghini Revuelto driving through the township and stopping traffic took the internet by storm. Many are claiming that the supercar belongs to legendary kwaito star Mandla 'Spikiri' Mofokeng, whose security team was bashed in the comment section.

TikTok user @t.o.n.y227 shared the video on 3 January 2026, showing the roughly R12.8 million vehicle coming to a stop as residents of the area swarmed the car with admiration. Two Volkswagen Golf GTIs and a Toyota Fortuner stopped next to and behind the Lamborghini, with men exiting to check out the scene. Many assumed them to be Spikiri's security detail. Once people cleared the road, the Lamborghini driver sped off, leaving the other cars to follow along.
