Cape Town – Poet Ntsiki Mazwai wants Molemo “Jub Jub” Maarohaanye to apologise to her for involving her name in a statement issued by his family regarding his alleged rape saga.

This comes after Jub Jub released a statement, recently, apologising to his former girlfriend and mother of his son, Kelly Khumalo for disparaging remarks he made against her on Mac G’s Podcast And Chill show.

According to City Press, Jub Jub was ordered to apologise to Kelly by Bokani Moyo who is the Head of Moja TV Channels which airs Jub Jub’s popular show Uyajola99.

“Thank you Jubjub…. Can I also have an apology for your family dragging my name when trying to intimidate these women that was unfair and unacceptable. We grew up together I know your family, you know mine. What you did was trash to me,” said Ntsiki in a tweet commenting on the statement.

Jub Jub’s family had previously issued a statement at the time in defence of Jub Jub against the rape allegations that were levelled against him by actress Amanda Du Pont and media personality Masechaba Khumalo.

Jub Jub’s family claimed the rape allegations were false and threatened legal action against the two media personalities.
In their statement in response to the rape allegations, they made an example of Ntsiki’s defeat in court against DJ Fresh who sued Ntsiki for defamation of character after she shared a Facebook post of a woman who claimed that the House DJ sexually assaulted her.
“It’s also poignant that we also highlight that Judge Brian Spilg of the South Gauteng High court presided over a similar case in the matter between DJ Fresh and Ntsiki Mazwai, during which he cautioned people not to abuse social media to make unfounded and irresponsible claims of GBV which could not be backed up by any facts or evidence,” read the statement at the time.
Ntsiki said there was never any reason for Jub Jub’s mother to involve her name in the family’s defence statement.
“There was never any reason for Jubjub mother to include my name in her press statement… Especially since her son was in the wrong. All it did was further emphasis[e] the narrative that I’m problematic. They hid behind me. It’s not ok with me. It affects how people perceive me,” she tweeted.

Meanwhile, Kelly Khumalo hasn’t commented publicly regarding the statement and tweeps have mixed reactions reharding Jub Jub’s apology.
