Lasizwe in hot soup over disrespectful comment on Connie Ferguson

Lasizwe Dambuza is no stranger to Twitter backlash and it gets weirder every time. The comedian and YouTuber made a typing error when commenting on a Connie Ferguson post, which was also shading him. His typo was deemed disrespectful by some people, especially because the nation just witnessed a woman bury the love of her life.

Yesterday media mogul Shona Ferguson was buried and during his funeral, Connie Ferguson pre-recorded her eulogy. Tweeps took it back to the day when Lasizwe buried his father and was dressed in white, with extra long nails and was crying uncontrollably.

Many saw that as making a farce or mockery out of his late father’s funeral, but he saw nothing wrong with it. A tweep said Lasizwe was just making content and was not really touched by this father’s passing.

“#Connieferguson did not turn her husband’s funeral into a content making opportunity. Respect that!!” Lasizwe commented and said, “We moan differently.”

He quickly corrected his comment as he meant to say mourn, “English is not my mother’s tongue, I meant “Mourn” not Moan ay!”

English is not my mother’s tongue, I meant “Mourn” not Moan ay!

In a previous tweet, Lasizwe expressed his heartache about Mr Shona’s passing. “Struggling To hold back my tears. #ConnieFerguson really lost her soul mate. Rest in Peace, Mr Sho,” he tweeted.
