  • Mamelodi Sundowns co-coach Manqoba Mngqithi has been sitting offside when it comes to a family member
  • Actress Asavela Mngqithi has accused her father of being a 'deadbeat' dad in a recent report

Mamelodi Sundowns co-coach Manqoba Mngqithi is having a bad weekend.

He had to eat his words after the club was defeated by SuperSport United in the DStv Premiership. However, earlier that day, his daughter Asavela Mnqokinyana (nee Mngqithi) embarrassed him on Twitter.

According to The Citizen, the Isibaya actress tweeted:

“Whatever I have/will still achieve, never credit all my hard work to Manqoba Mngqithi and his money. Ngihluphekile, ngaphumelela engekho (I suffered financially until I made it without his support). If you have an opinion or inkinga ngicela uyidle (if you have a problem with that, just eat it). Love and light I guess.”

She recently got married, but as is tradition, her father was not there to give her away. Her actions have been described as unnecessary considering how Mngqithi is a respected figure in local football whose private life is never in the headlines.

Sports Brief went to her Twitter account, which has since been deleted.

Kaizer Chiefs star Njabulo Ngcobo accused of abandoning baby mama to get married in secret

Just days after getting married, Kaizer Chiefs defender Njabulo Ngcobo will have to deal with a potentially embarrassing development.

As reported by Sports Brief, it was revealed in an Isolezwe Lange report over the weekend that the 28-year-old had abandoned the mother of his two children to tie the knot with another woman in secret.

A source close to the publication:

“What eats Gugu inside is that she was with Njabulo when he was a nobody and he was not even with Uthongathi then. She was doing everything for him and supported him in every way possible including lending him her car. Njabulo met her when she was already a teacher at a school in Jolivet."

The article also detailed how Ngcobo told Mkhize that he wanted a polygamous wedding with her and the unnamed woman. Sunday World reported that they were married two weeks ago.
