Bonang Matheba has replied to DJ Euphonik's "We are trash" tweet with one word, "nonke".
Three years ago, DJ Euphonik came up with the word "nonke", a word that refers to negative people on Twitter. This had followed a series of tweets about his personal life, including one where he referred to Matheba star as "queen".
The "Vuma" producer and Matheba had dated a for a brief period and, after they broke up, allegations of DJ Euphonik assaulting her have done the rounds.
On Tuesday, with the country still talking about gender-based violence, DJ Euphonik joined in on the Men Are Trash movement by tweeting "We are trash...", to which Matheba said "NONKE!"
