The claims against him came out during the ousting of perpetrators who have allegedly sexually assaulted others. The claims were on Twitter under #AmINext.
The woman accusing the ‘Country Duty’ social media influencer said that he was at Durban in relation to business. They allegedly went to his room, had drinks and then he allegedly forced himself on her, according to the anonymous woman. “Met in Durban. He was there on business. I liked him yes. Invited me to his hotel room. Had drinks. Forced himself on me. He eventually managed to penetrate me,” said the anonymous woman.
The woman went on to say that she is taking ARVs because of the social media influencer. The anonymous woman said: “Now I’m taking ARVs cause of a selfish self absorbed man. I want him to trend until his wife sees this.
