A recent social media feud between media personality Dineo Ranaka and April Zwane has drawn public attention. Zwane posted a tearful video accusing Ranaka of owing her money from nearly a year ago and publicly humiliating her by alleging theft of “cheap makeup.” Zwane, a professional makeup artist, denied the claim, finding it insulting.
The conflict escalated after Zwane tagged Dineo in a social media post about a cruise competition, reminding her of the debt. Ranaka allegedly responded with a sharp insult implying Zwane was a thief, deepening the dispute into public defamation.
This case highlights social media’s double-edged nature: it gives a voice to grievances but also magnifies accusations. For both public figures and private individuals, reputation damage and emotional distress are high stakes. Zwane’s emotional outburst reveals the personal toll behind the headlines.
The saga remains unresolved as the public awaits Dineo Ranaka’s response, illustrating the risks of mixing personal and business issues in the social media spotlight.
