South African musician Khutso Steven Kgatle, better known by his stage name King Monada just headed online to share a photo of himself chilling in the lavish home he built for himself in his Limpopo hometown. While many praised him for his amazing achievement, others have lambasted him for setting up such a large mansion among the impoverished villagers who “have to look up at him from his throne”.
A number of people wondered why he didn’t build his home among other homes of that kind in a wealthier suburb.

King Monada, best known for his songs Ex Yaka and Chiwana, left many heads turning after he headed on social media to share photos of himself enjoying the mansion he built for himself in his Tzaneen, Limpopo village.
