South African musician Mandla Maphumulo, popularly known as Mampintsha has lost a lot of weight and South Africans are already assuming the worst, saying that former Big Nuz member R Mashesha who died at a hospital in Durban in 2015 is humbly waiting for him at the grave-site.
On Thursday Mampintsha was being dragged and addressed as R-Mampitsha, with locals citing his weight loss as karma after he allegedly assaulted girlfriend and fellow musician Babes Wodumo. So Shimora, what’s up?

R Mashesha died following a throat operation and many assumed that he died of HIV/AIDS.
South Africans are very quick to assume and judge local celebrities, in 2014 they also assumed that former Teargas member K.O, real name Ntokozo Mdluli was HIV when he lost a noticeable amount of weight.

Many linked K.O’s weight loss to HIV even comparing him (then) to R Mashesha who was also subjected to these kinds of rumours in 2014.
To squash, the rumours about his health, rapper K.O posted his HIV test results on Instagram. Look at K.O now? Nobody is saying anything? Nothing? No apology for assuming the worst about him. Anyway, K.O has moved on from that trauma and the boy is focused on his solo career.

Fast forward, Mampintsha has become a trending topic on Twitter after a recent video of him was published and local Twitter doctors have already issued his diagnosis.
