SA influencer Nomfundo Radebe under fire for faking her own abduction, lied about Nigerian guy

Mzansi influencer, Nomfundo Radebe trended on social media after it was realized that she staged her own kidnap. Most of her followers expressed empathy and tried helping after she called out for help.

She has taken down tweets where she requested for help. She also shared the number of a man by the name of Andrew, who is assumed by South Africans to be the number of her kidnapper.

It was later revealed that Andrew was her friend and she’s refused to take back her words on the kidnap issue, as she claim it did happen.

“I was just clearing the mans name and explaining why I posted his number. As for the incident that happened to me, it did happen,” she said.

These are some of the reactions:

#nomfundo should be arrested the same years a kidnapper would have got if he was found guilty…The falsifying of rape/kidnapping is a slap in a face of real GBV victims… pic.twitter.com/F2wcTTNJn1
