SAA eats humble pie, apologises to Bonang for cheeky reply
Bonang Matheba
South African Airways was forced to eat some humble pie when it issued an apology to TV personality Bonang Matheba for an earlier response to her complaint about the airline’s food.
Matheba on Wednesday sent a tweet to SAA, complaining about some of the meals offered during a flight.
“We don’t like the couscous. Also that meal with the stew. Please hey. Also the funny cheese platter what what. Please,” she tweeted SAA.
Instead of a standard response, SAA hit back at Matheba, saying she was the only one complaining about the food served.
“Hi, please note that other passengers enjoyed the meals,” it said.
This cheeky reply did not sit well with Matheba, who clapped back, saying the airline should’ve rather apologised for the misshap before calling it a “trash airline”.
Once tempers had cooled it seemed, the airline issued an apology to the starlet, saying “our Queen B, we at SAA love you. About our previous response, we are so sorry”.

Of course, this apology did not sit well some Tweeps, who felt that SAA should not have apologised, as the first response was the best one.

Yung6ix Admits That He Misunderstood Akpororo's Joke About Buying A Hit Song

By
Akpororo was recently slammed by rapper Yung6ix after the comedian made a joke about the singer spending over 3 million naira on drinks rather than purchasing a hit song. His DJ, Timmy , also joined in and got really personal. He made videos calling out the comedian, saying his wife/mother of his child was once a sex slave and had aborted six times for a dancer. The DJ also threatened the comedian, saying "Your jokes would put you in trouble and make you get shot." Ying6ix has now admitted in an interview with HipTV that he reacted without seeing the video about the joke. According to him; At first when everybody started....I didn't get to see the full joke. But when I got to see it, I realized it was a joke. Its all entertainment. So no feelings/emotions attached. I knew it was a joke. We all made fun about it and all took advantage of the fact that I was trending and I had a new video out there. I don't see anything coming between me and him or whateve...
