Meat king Jabulani “Mjay” Nzama, who owns one of the most popular shisa nyamas in South Africa auctioned his luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom and Mercedes-Benz AMG GLE 63, worth at least R8 million, to pay his hefty debt.

This week the owner of Eyadini Lounge in Umlazi, Durban, admitted to City Press that he owed the SA Revenue Service millions, but insisted he had made arrangements with Sars to reduce his debt by paying monthly instalments.“Obviously selling my cars would help me pay my debts, including the money I owe to Sars. But my vision of selling these cars is big as I want to venture into other businesses, which I will disclose when the time is right.

This week rumours were doing the rounds that Sars raided Nzama’s house to repossess luxurious cars after he defaulted on his monthly instalment.“This is fake news. My cars were not repossessed. I volunteered to put my cars on auction because I realised that they were not bringing in money, yet I was paying a fortune every month.

“The competition is tough in this business. I am the only one whose Instagram account has managed to reach 500K followers. I am aware that not everyone is going to be happy for me and the success of my business.”

Good move. He growing and he has gotten wiser. Success is not define by flashy possessions. For that reason Im ready to support him

Good move you he will recover Go katakata gase go tshaba ke go tseamaatla

Why did he buy this expensive cars in the first place if his finances where not alright?

Good idea

Noble move! Growth is born in such moves. This is a strategic killer move! For that next time I’m in KZN I’ll support eyadini! Big ups!

Wise decision

bozzie_t The important thing is he paid his debt.

bozzie_t Very sensible decision, never be worried about losing the wheels. Our white counterparts swallow bullets when they are faced with financial difficulty or bankruptcy. Keep going bro it is just a minor setback.EyadiniLounge

That tells me that people are spending without thinking about generational wealth..we are stealing from the future of our unborn generations.

As much as we will say all sorts abt black people & living lavish BUT I THINK as long as he was/is happy and most of all stayed away from the PUBLIC COFFERS...

This is Rolls-Royce Ghost and not Phantom

I salute him for realizing that those assets are not bringing in money. He will bounce back
