Zola 7’s Silent Struggle Forces Him To Make Changes To His Life
Recently, Zola 7, whose real name is Bonginkosi Dlamini, took to his social media platforms to announce significant changes in his professional life. He revealed the unsettling persistence of his former managers, who continue to wield influence over him.
In a statement, the veteran Kwaito artist said:
“Untamed Communication and Zola 7 would like to announce that all social media handles for Zola 7, excluding his current Twitter (X) social profile, have changed. The change is because (sic) the Zola 7 brand is being tempered with because of the many fraudulent activities and the use of the Zola 7 brand by the previously-employed Zola 7 social media manager that refuses to perform an official handover.”
Zola 7 advised his devoted fans to connect with him through @official_zola7 on Facebook and Instagram, as well as @Officialzola7 on Twitter (X).
It appears that his past managers are causing him considerable distress. Zola 7’s management team expressed concern that his former managers were exploiting his previous contact information to deceive well-intentioned supporters.
“We are also aware that many (sic) people are still using his old contact and booking information ([email protected]). We urge you to familiarise yourselves with this new contact/booking information to avoid being scammed.”
