"The MultiChoice Group distances itself from the commentary made by Zodwa Wabantu on independent channel Moja Love. It is important to note that, as Moja Love is an independent third-party channel, MultiChoice Group does not exercise editorial control over their broadcast." The group said it sees Zodwa Wabantu's comments allowed to air on Moja Love on DStv as"disrespectful and offensive, promoting discrimination and encouraging of hate crimes particularly towards the trans community. In our tireless efforts to deconstruct stereotypes, we view these statements as degenerative and damaging to the continuous struggle for equality".
"In Saturday's episode of Zodwa Wabantu: Uncensored, producers decided to include the star's comment, making sweeping negative and false generalisations and Moja Love channel execs seeing nothing wrong with Zodwa saying"Gay people are naughty. Name a gay person who has never fought with a girl."
