The businessman says reactions to the footage of his fleet of cars caused both anger and anxiety within his family and left them 'vulnerable to unnecessary attention'.

In one video, Ndlovu can be heard telling another person who the luxurious cars are for. He said he bought one Lamborghini Urus SUV, three Porsches and a Jeep for himself, the “kids”, his parents and his wife.

Ndlovu is the founder of Hamilton Holdings, a company that provides commercial and engineering services in the SADC region. The company’s head office is in Melrose Arch, with three other branches in other provinces.While many congratulated the man, some cautioned him that the video could attract attention from law officials who may investigate him, as happened to Sam Holdings.

Investigative award-winning journalist and author Pieter-Louis Myburgh went on to face criticism from social media users after he commented on businessman Ndlovu’s mega purchase. “Five luxury cars in one go. We have to celebrate our successful businesspeople. Please DM me if you know anything about Hamilton Ndlovu’s business activities, just want to do a little research for a profile piece ;),” tweeted Myburgh.In his apology, Ndlovu said he said he had never intended to “trivialise” the community’s current challenges and that he received all the comments, positive or negative, “with humility”.

Apology for what. He is an inspiration...

Why apologize...? If you got the money, spend it that's what people do. Nothing to do with Corona!!!!

You shouldn't have to apologize for spending your own money. If you he money is clean and earned through honest hard work then go ahead ahead and spoil yourself and your family. There will always be jealous people out there trying to bring u down. Well done to you 😊

He should be careful. The dregs of SA society may threaten him with death and/or rape. That's what happens to thoughtless people in SA.

Ag, please. People who are successful and have money will ALWAYS get the wrath of less successful people. Be proud of what you achieved and what you have. If anything, him showing off what he owns should be an inspiration and motivate people.

Go big men.O mphifuso wa phatla ya gao

Why would you need to apologize? Your life, your money bro. No apologies needed

People should really stop apologizing for living their lives... You chose to follow him on his socials, and chose to click on his trends.

Good for you.

Duh. I trust her 👇 Is that the same WHO that forgot to warn us on time about the virus spreading in China end of last year?!?! Thank you for their advise,we know smoking is bad. So is sugar,red meat,sugary cool drinks and many more. But they are all available.

SA cannot shrug off smoking as a defence against Covid-19Scores of studies have found fewer smokers among hospital cases than in the general population At the end of the day smokers are fighting for their right to choose. Mostly all smokers are tax paying citizens and cannot fathom why we should be nannied. We know the risks. fita_sa The excuse for the ban to continue is due to the need for ventilation by smokers who catch Covid-19...but doesn't alcohol lead to people needing ventilation more quicker than smokers...I'm confused at the stupid reason this minister is using for the ban to continue Tell that to CyrilRamaphosa and Zuma the president of SA. The ban is to enrich their criminal cronies and cadres. We are not stupid. coronavirus tobacco
