Mu Ngcolosi said: “You’re now ready to advise, guide and counsel. That I truly believe is your calling. People need support and service, mentorship from the people who have an idea. Often we listen and believe people that have no idea what we are going through. Keep walking my friend. Grow from glory to glory. I do not feel any pity for you as I see a testimony of a conqueror, iqhawekazi. Keep going, you are appreciated.”

Hillary Hoskins wrote: “Strong dear, yours is a story of most African women. Life of resilience. I’m not religious and don’t believe in a God. But I believe in the strength of black women because I’ve experienced that strength in many, including myself. All the best in your new chapter. You got this, sis.”

Nomzamo Landigwe suggested she gets therapy.

She said: “Hope you’re getting some therapy. All the best.”
