Nonkululeko's caption on the post read:

"Lil bro was more hacked than my parents. The roller coaster of emotions he felt."

In the video, the brother couldn't believe what had happened and tried to reason his sister and mother out of accepting what to him was a ridiculous letter.

The mother reminded him that he was the one who was announcing that his sister is moving out.

"Yes, but alone, bro! Alone," he retorted.
"How do you know if you can trust this n*gga if we don't know him?"

When his sister said it was not that deep and was encouraged to visit them, he felt like she was rushing.

"I don't wanna visit her in another man's pozi! I get home, and I find lobola letters. What is this?"
