Vosho queen Zodwa Wabantu recently acquired land in Mpumalanga for business purposes, but the one thing she will not open on it, is a shebeen.  

The local entertainer is famous for her sexy dance moves, but she is also known for her love of having a Savanna. 

Having previously stated that she can afford expensive drinks but she prefers Savanna to champagne because you get equally lit. 

However, she has made it clear that while she enjoys her drink of choice she will not be opening a shebeen on her new property. 

Speaking to TsishaLIVE, Wabantu said that alcohol abuse is killing black people and she didn't want to contribute to it.

"I won't build a tavern. No, look at me. I am drinking and I don't want to kill black people. Alcohol is killing black people. It can ruin young people's dreams. It can kill them."

Wabantu also explained that she will not be like other celebs who "rent penthouses for R18 000 but don't have a place to stay" when the money dries up and she didn't want to end up like them. 

"They will die with no money because they are not investing in their future. They won't even be able to get an RDP house. I am scared of not being able to look after myself when I am old. I am scared of dying without money because I know what poverty is like. You can laugh at me but I have a house and land."
