South African gqom artist and choreographer, Babes Wodumo, has once again been on social media for the wrong reasons.
While speaking to a police officer, the talented singer’s ‘English bundle’ got ‘depleted.’ She spoke to the police officer in a place that appears to be the gate of her home where she was working with some other people.

Babes Wodumo doesn't owe anyone good English. English is not a measure of intelligence. White people abuse our African languages too kodwa ninqena ukubahleka. @danielmarvenpic.twitter.com/pDGB51edbG
