The DJ tried responding to some of the comments to his tweet, and he made it clear that he won’t be receiving lobola for his daughter.
“There’s a lot of women married by rich men but they are not taken care of, you showing me how much you have doesn’t mean anything, secondly I wouldn’t want Lobola for my daughter, I don’t see the need for it.”
Oh so Lobola is for your wife to take care of you? https://t.co/Utm6EBXjHN

The Fetch Your Life hitmaker summarized a research he’s read on lobola, and it’s side effect.
“So I read somewhere that some men take loans to pay Lobola, live trying to pay back the loan while paying for everything in the house then get divorced losing everything but debts. 35% of these men commit suicide,” he added.
What do you also think of paying lobola?
