I Molemo “Jub Jub” Maarohanye would like to take this moment to apologise to the mother of my son Kelly Khumalo for any distress, or hurt I may have caused her following not only the aftermath of my interview on Podcast and Chill with Mac G but also any other public opinion,” he wrote.

Last year, the controversial presenter went to the infamous Podcast And Chill show with Mac G to air his dirty laundry out.
The interview subsequently gained traction on social media and Kelly gained flak because of the rapper’s utterances.
“I really did not mean for things to get here between you and I, My comments were taken out of context however it still doesn’t make it right. Please don’t think that I am sending you this apology because of the recent article published this past weekend, I had plans to make things right with you and I will do that outside of the public domain,” he said.
According to City Press, Jub Jub was ordered to apologise to Kelly after he approached MojaLove TV channel for his old job back.
“Moja Love has seen and read Jub Jub’s heartfelt letter of apology to Kelly Khumalo. We support that he will take sensitivity training and we will be monitoring the progress thereof,” Drum quoted Bokani Moyo, Head of Moja TV Channels as saying.
Meanwhile, Kelly hasn’t issued any comment publicly regarding the apology.
Social media users were left with mixed reactions over Jub Jub’s apology to the singer.
This “Please don’t think that I am sending you this apology because of the recent article published this past weekend” is the reason Jub Jub is apologising to Kelly.

It’s hilarious, actually.
What’s even more hilarious is how Jub Jub said Kelly uses umuthi, basically calling her gqwirhy, but now says those comments were taken out of context. lol
