Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Bongo Maffin’s star, Stoan Seate, gets dragged on Twitter after saying “Fuck The EFF!!!!!”
Stoan got Thandiswa pregnant… Men have been waiting for a day where they can hand it to him. Why did he choose my birthday to come out as a clout chaser? I think he needs to be left off the next Bongo Maffin album. Speedy’s towel will cover for him!
Musician and actor Stoan Seate ruffled a lot of feathers on Monday morning, when he insulted the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) amid fanfare surrounding the national shutdown planned by the political party.
At the time of writing, his “f*** EFF” tweet had received over 1 000 replies and had been quoted over 500 times.
When a Twitter user receives that much engagement, the general assumption is that the response they are receiving is not good. Twitter users often use the slang term “getting cooked” to describe the phenomenon of being dogpiled on after tweeting something controversial or not too smart.
While most members of the EFF were focused on the business of the day, the EFF’s Naledi Chirwa hit back at Stoan with insults and accusations of her own.
Politician and musician Ringo Madlingozi also questioned Stoan’s position. In addition to being a musician, Stoan has been working as an actor and TV presenter since the early 2000s.
In a 2021 interview with 702’s Bruce Whitfield, he spoke about the importance of managing your royalties well, adding “I’m still cashing cheques from the 90’s”.
He was also recently cast in the final season of the Showmax show, The Wife, in the role of Sefako – the love interest who is competing for Naledi’s affection.
Stoan also recently supported the three-day-long Mahika Mahikeng Cultural Music Festival. “Aw Stoan. I thought load-shedding was your problem as well. I thought you can see the majority of black people are still living in squalor. I thought their pain was your pain as well. What has EFF done to black people that you have to swear it that much? Why so much self-hate?,” said Ringo
EFF MP Naledi Chirwa was livid and took a at the musician’s acting.
“A little tender in the North West makes you swear at us for no reason? F**k you le wena Stoan. Ebile you can’t act.”
The Wife actor also received backlash from tweeps who were disappointed by his sentiments.
Taking to his own timeline Stoan shared dancing GIFs.
“Hey hey career what what nxim,” he tweeted.
EFF spokesperson Sinawo Tambo told TimesLIVE they were pleased with the turnout of supporters at Church Square in Pretoria.
“We are very impressed by the turnout of people coming out at midnight when the shutdown started all over the country.”
