Public reactions to Zola 7’s luxury car
As the video of Zola 7’s new car made rounds on the internet, many users took to the comments to share their thoughts. Below are some of the reactions:
@Ese7391 commented:
“This is beautiful.”
@DreadyPrince remarked:
“We will not be there when he starts asking for donations.”
@rholm_charlene noted:
“I am worried, my brother had an epilepsy episode, which led to a tragic incident. It’s hard to find a driver, but epilepsy is unpredictable. I love Zola and I am glad to see him happy.”
@PVT_Prince1 added:
“Our donations served him well, long Live Jama ka Sjadu enjoy your second chance, thank you South Africans for saving our teenage-hood motivational speaker.”
@Sbuja expressed:
“That’s why I don’t donate for these individuals. No updates from when he shared his bank account, then suddenly he’s in a brand new X6.”
@Lemon_Loa stated:
“It’s ironic that the red car (which he lost in a competition) is now rusting away at someone’s house in my area.”
@Brian5597414957 raised a question:
“So, he no longer has epilepsy? He was crying about his financial struggles last time. Has that been resolved? Why is he choosing such an expensive car?”
@Real_TmanG remarked:
“What I know is that epilepsy can be treated, let’s hope he received the necessary care.”
