The feud between media personality Bonang Matheba and MInister of Sports, Arts and Culture of South Africa Nathi Mthethwa seems to have been reignited on social media. This comes after when Queen B lambasted Minister Nathi Mthethwa once again over the lack of financial support towards our woman’s football team Banyana Banyana.
Evidently, Queen B is not the one to shy away from voicing her opinions and going head to head with anyone on social media, even if it is a Minister. As she takes on Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture of South Africa Nathi Mthethwa over the lack of support for the thriving women’s soccer team Banyana Banyana.
Minister Nathi Mthethwa took to social media to warmly congratulate Banyana Banyana for qualifying into the finals for the Women’s Cup of Nations after defeating Zambia in the semi-finals.
“It is with a deep sense of pride that I congratulate the @Banyana_Banyana warriors on clinching a spot in the finals of the Women’s African Cup of Nations after defeating Zambia in the semi-finals. Your victory is a historic moment for women’s football in South Africa” wrote Minister Nathi Mthethwa
Bonang Matheba did not waste any of her time as she took to social media to lambast Minister Nathi Mthethwa for the lack of financial support towards Banyana Banyana, as compared to Bafana Bafana. Lest we forget, Minister Nathi Mthethwa recently made headlines as he was reported to be fitting a budget for a R30 Million Philharmonic Orchestra fund.
Queen B put it to Minister Nathi Mthethwa as she requests for the Banyana Banyana team to be paid accordingly since Minister Nathi Mthethwa has a R30 Million budget for Orchestra fund.
“Please. These girls deserve MONEY! Open. Your. Wallet. Akere you want an orchestra?!! So damn useless!! Resign.” wrote Bonang Matheba.
Twitter is abuzz as tweets seems to be agreeing with what Bonang Matheba is proposing to Minister Nathi Mthethwa about Banyana Banyana. Tweeps also share the same sentiments that Banyana Banyana is of course underpaid as compared to Bafana Bafana, as well as Minister Nathi Mthethwa have other outrageous budgets to fund flags and orchestra’s but pay Banyana Banyana.
“They truly deserve money. Women should be rewarded accordingly too. Let’s give them what they deserve & see them being empowered” wrote Mmabatho Makotanyane.
“That money he so desperately wanna spend must be channeled to Banyana Banyana. ach player should get R1m if they win the trophy” Ngoaka.
