EFF Leader Julius Malema Saves Rapper Shebeshxt with Urgent Medical Aid
Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader Julius Malema has extended a helping hand to controversial rapper Shebeshxt, covering his medical bills after a devastating car accident.
The rapper, born Lehlogonolo Katlego Chauke, was initially admitted to Polokwane Provincial Hospital following the tragic accident.
The accident, which claimed the life of Shebeshxt’s nine-year-old daughter, occurred on the R37 Road near the Smelters Mine in Limpopo on Saturday night. Tidimalo Chuene, the spokesperson for the Limpopo transport department, confirmed on Sunday that the child passed away at the scene.
Shebeshxt Left Unattended at Public Hospital
According to Chuene, the accident happened just after 10 pm. Shebeshxt received initial treatment for serious injuries at the scene before being transported to the hospital. However, a source who spoke to Sunday World on condition of anonymity disclosed that Shebeshxt was left unattended for hours at the public hospital due to a lack of medical aid.
“Shebeshxt does not have medical aid, so they took him to a public hospital, where he was not assisted for some time,” said the source.
