  "account": "DJ Sbu, the radio personality, and Ntsiki Mazwai, the outspoken poet, have engaged in a social media feud. The radio host insists he does not want \"smoke\" with the poet. Ntsiki, who is now running as the Land Party's Johannesburg mayoral candidate, took issue with DJ Sbu's comments that she was drunk, which she claims are untrue because she does not drink. Ntsiki addressed Radio 2000, questioning the narrative around her, particularly after she openly discussed her sexuality. She urged people not to police her expression, especially on Women's Day. DJ Sbu responded, expressing his love for Ntsiki and clarifying that he meant no harm. He attributed the misunderstanding to his reading of her post on Women's Day, which discussed sexual advice, and suggested she was busy with \"Autumn Harvest\", a popular South African wine, during her post. Ntsiki felt compelled to correct the record, as she believed the comments could negatively influence how people perceive her and disrespect her dignity.",
