South African influencer Vuyokazi Nciweni has responded with a cryptic Instagram story following explosive cheating allegations made by Hazel Kotu. Kotu, during an appearance on the “Engineer Your Life” podcast, claimed that Nciweni had a more involved relationship with Thendo Zonzo than previously admitted, contradicting Nciweni’s earlier assertion that their viral kissing video was a spontaneous encounter. Nciweni’s Instagram story, featuring Zulu text loosely translated as “mind your own business, stay out of my affairs,” has sent social media into a frenzy, with fans divided over her perceived response to the ongoing drama. The controversy stems from a viral clip circulated on July 16, 2026, showing Nciweni and Zonzo kissing at a nightclub, which Nciweni initially downplayed as a casual interaction.
