TWEEPS REACT TO THE ALLEGED FRAUD
Twitter users think the media personality is too trusting.
“I think she alluded to something like that in her reality show,” tweeted @Chi_Chiboya.
“Looks like Zinhle is too trusting for her own good,” tweeted @Ntje11.
“Zinhle needs to stop trusting people too much. If some random employee has access to R500k imagine how much Murdah Bongs is stealing and has access to, this explains why Murda Bongs even want out of Black Motion,” tweeted @NdlovuIssac.
“On her reality show, she mentioned something that one of her employees was stealing from her. But never mentioned names,” tweeted @nomthandazoWN.
