Media personality Anele Mdoda has defended a tweet which she said was misinterpreted.
Twitter was in a tizz this week when an unverified account made claims that a woman had sex with an intoxicated DJ Dimplez with the intention to fall pregnant with his child.
While Twitter users naturally weighed in on the allegations, one tweet did not go down well with many thinking Anele was taking aim at the DJ.
“A sexual predator suing a young lady he harassed because she called him out. Yi film. okay ke beyps. Kubo”, tweeted the radio star.

Before she knew it, she was catching stray bullets and found herself explaining what her tweet was about.
“Perhaps make sure I am talking about what you are talking about.
“There are 65 million people in this here country,” she said.

She then said that her initial tweet was about a situation taking place at a workplace.
“There is a lady who was being sexually harassed at work.
“She laid a claim, he got let go. He is now suing her.
“No Dimples here. I have nothing to say about the Dimples issue.
“I don't have enough information on that issue hence I am mum about it perhaps allow the law. The end,” she said.

She also told those who had responded to her that she did not want to speak about the issue around DJ Dimplez as she knew nothing about it.
“I am avoiding commentary on that story because I have no idea what happened and I would like to keep it that way shem.
“We don't have to have opinions on everything,” she added.
