Anele Mdoda reveals why she did not celebrate Women’s Day

Anele Mdoda reveals she is not celebrating Women’s Day. While 9 August holds a historical significance in the country, brutal and horrific crimes like the gang-rape of eight women in Krugersdorp recently go against everything the brave female leaders of 1956 marched to Union Buildings for.

Taking to Twitter, the star said she wonders if the eight women who were gang raped are having Women’s Day. Anele cautions her fans to not send her good wishes today as all the women are burning.

She tweeted: “I wonder if the eight women who were gang raped are having a happy Women’s Day? Please spare me any good wishes on this day. We as women are in hell. We are burning and men say it’s not that hot. I wonder how hot it has to get. Don’t wish me anything mna. Leave me alone”
