“Embarrassing”: Local man makes money rain at a Soweto nightclub, viral video
In other stories, Briefly News wrote that frequent social media user Kulani has done it again by causing a storm on his timeline.
The Twitter user has shared a video of a group of revellers who are seen jostling to catch the money. Looking at the viral clip, it seems the locals were at KONKA in Jozi and a man rumoured to be Mzansi billionaire, Patrice Motsepe, decided to throw money all over the place.
However, some networkers are in disbelief and say that it is not the real Patrice Motsepe as the caption suggests.
