DJ Tira’s son, Samkelo Shezi, has reportedly paid lobola for his girlfriend, Mbali Dlamini, in what appears to be a traditional ceremony. The 23-year-old is said to have paid lobola for his 28-year-old partner, with viral images circulating online showing what is believed to be the ceremony.
The photos quickly gained attention on social media, sparking mixed reactions from the public. Some fans expressed support and admiration for the couple’s milestone, while others questioned the authenticity of the images and commented on their appearance and age difference.
A social media user quoted Samkelo, stating, “The six cows and two sheep I paid as lobola for influencer Mbali Dlamini were not a prank or for views on social media, but were real.”
The couple has reportedly been together for nearly a year.
As the story trends, opinions remain divided. Supporters celebrate the couple’s union, while critics have made disparaging comments, with some calling the girlfriend “ugly for a superstar’s son” and others commenting on her appearance.
The development has sparked widespread discussion online, reflecting both excitement and skepticism surrounding the traditional lobola exchange.
