Somizi Mhlongo Steps in to Help Cwecwe’s Family
Renowned South African media personality, Somizi Mhlongo, has pledged to assist the family of seven-year-old Cwecwe, who was allegedly assaulted at school. The TV and radio star has vowed to cover all legal expenses to ensure that justice is served.
In a heartfelt video, Somizi expressed his willingness to support the family financially after learning they were struggling to afford legal fees. His act of generosity has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some praising him for his kindness while others criticized him for allegedly neglecting his own daughter, Bahumi.
Somizi’s Public Plea to Contact Cwecwe’s Family
Somizi took to social media to share a video in which he appealed for assistance in contacting Cwecwe’s mother. He stated that he was moved by a video where the mother expressed financial difficulties in continuing with the legal battle.
“Anyone who knows or can help me with access to Cwecwe’s mother, because I have seen a video where she said they have run out of money for the lawyers. I am willing to pay anything and everything that I have to make sure that they get the best lawyers,” Somizi said.
To expedite the process, he also shared his personal assistant’s contact details, urging people to connect him with the family.
Social Media Reactions: Praise and Criticism
Somizi’s gesture was met with mixed reactions online. Many users applauded his generosity and willingness to help a family in need. Several people even pledged to support the cause by signing petitions and spreading awareness.
However, some social media users criticized him, arguing that he should prioritize his own daughter before offering financial help to others. His baby mama, Palesa, has previously accused him of being absent in Bahumi’s life despite his wealth.
Some of the comments on social media included:
- @Yoza: “Thank you, Somsom, for your generosity. The Almighty will bless you more. Justice for Cwecwe!”
- @Melanin🇿🇦🇹🇭: “One thing about Somizi—the important things, he’s available.”
- @DDT_PM: “Just yesterday, his baby mama was complaining that this guy doesn’t take care of his daughter. Now he wants to act like a hero? Opportunist!”
- @Tabongz_SA: “Buy your child a house and a car. Charity begins at home.”
