Celebrated actress and media personality Pearl Thusi may not get involved in the advocacy to raise funds for kwaito veteran Zola 7, citing the allegations of gender-based violence against the muso.
Her refusal to support Zola 7 has caused her to trend on Mzansi Twitter, with many on the space sharing their thoughts on what it means for the culture.
Zola 7 is currently facing health and financial issues and the public has been rallying to help him. The songster is said to be suffering from epilepsy and it has hindered his growth as a musician.
