What's all the hype about Matenas Wadi Yobisi? Well, it's a cool AF friendship.

Image:as Wadi Yobisi has more than 20,000 followers on Instagram and has frequently shot up the trends list on Twitter with his dance moves. Now that he has a budding career as an entertainer, everyone wants to know who is.

A month ago, after Mandla Kayise, 19, decided to film his best friend of nearly two years, Martinus Olckers, aka Matenas Wadi Yobisi, 16, dancing, and the internet hasn't been able to get enough of the teen.Speaking to TshisaLIVE, the two pupils from a special school in Pretoria, Suiderberg School, said they never thought they'd become this popular, and want to make the most of the attention they've garnered on social media.

“Mandla was asking to take videos of how I dance. That's how I got popular. It feels amazing. It feels like I'm dreaming as I get more popular,” Martinus said.“Those videos, we took them as a joke. We were playing and then things got very serious. We went viral with the second video. The first we took as a joke. The second one went viral so I opened an Instagram account so he can have a platform with his pictures and videos.

“It's like a music group. My parents are so happy and support me. We will balance properly with school when it opens. Now the schools are closed so we'll be doing a lot of work,” Mandla said.
