@simoneheynes said:

"People who judge and or mock are low vibrational souls, unfortunately, they have to ascend in their own journey and it is not our responsibility to make them do it. Love and light and keep your vibrations high."

@jaymee.lisse shared:

"No one holds you accountable. Thank you for speaking up. We appreciate you and support you."

@lifewithreesy commented:

"Yesss. I hate that accountability was being pushed towards you and/or your mother by some. You shouldn’t be pulled into another adults situation unless you’re directly involved, which you aren’t. Keep that beautiful spirit."

Taariq reposted Nadia's letter but followed up with a video stating that he does not agree with homosexuality. Taariq expressed his religious views in the clip and referred to homosexuality as being a sin. Check it out for yourself:

Bujy Bikwa joins anti-GBV awareness walk, wants people to know his motives are pure

In other controversial news, Briefly News previously reported that Mzansi radio personality Bujy Bikwa took a stand against gender-based violence amidst his name being dragged into the heated topic following his fallout with Boity Thulo.

Joining the Khuzekani Madoda organisation for a 5km anti-GBV awareness walk on Sunday, 7 November, Bujy is doing his bit and it's not out of guilt either.

Bujy understands people think “the fight happened because I attacked her because she was female” but he claims that the one fact missing is that “she attacked me first” and used her position as a female to do as she pleased.
