![TOP STORY | MAKHADZI 'MUST PAY BACK THE MONEY'- MANAGER PHILANI BY THANDI MATHEBULA Acclaimed Xitsonga Music Promoter, popularly known as Manager Philani, took to Facebook and accused BET Award winner Makhadzi. According to Philani, Makhadzi was paid R55k to perform in 2022, but Makhadzi never showed up and never paid back the money. On Wednesday, morning, 10 July 2024, Makhadzi displayed emotional response on social media after the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture revealed that she had received R230, 000 from the Department in the last 14 months, but Philani did not show any sympathy. Philani wrote that: [Swa Venda Artist liya swi tshikeleni Mina but what I know is she is taking advantage of us Tsonga People and hide with the word TRIBALISM...] Loosely translated- leave the Venda queen to me, but one thing for sure I know is that she is taking advantage of us Tsonga people and hiding behind the term 'tribalism'. BELOW IS PHILANI'S DETAILED ACCOUNT OF WHAT TRANSPIRED: We were the first to book her for Spring weekend from the start of negotiations and paid her the deposit on the spot after our first meeting at her Fourways house. The balance was paid to her 10 days before the event. We realized there was a problem when she started not communicating and not returning or answering our calls prior to the event. It turned out that our event clashed with her event in Botswana, and she ditched us without any communication. At approximately 19:00 on the day of the event (03/09/2022), she called to inform us that she was from another event in Midrand and would perform at 20:00 before departing. She didn't arrive as promised and left many of her Tsonga fans disappointed. Our next effort was to meet her at one of her events, where it was agreed that we forgive and forget, and that she would come to our next event to pay back the money. Even after giving her a second chance, it was still a struggle as her manager (Maphuthi) asked for a ridiculous amount on top of the R55k that was agreed and paid in full. Our lawyers finally sent a letter of demand for the payment after numerous attempts. She then started asking for an invoice so she could pay back the money (R55k) An invoice was sent to her, but payment has not been received to date. Your Queen must Pay Back the Money Period!!! In the past week, Makhadzi has opened up about her financial struggles. According to Makhadzi, she has to pay SARS every month when she receives money, resulting in her not having any money for herself.](http://limpoponewsupdate.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Makhadzi-400x245.jpeg)
