“This is embarrassing”: Check what Somizi and Moshe Ndiki were doing in Ibiza.
In a recent social media stir, media personality Somizi Mhlongo and his best friend Moshe Ndiki found themselves at the center of controversy when they were seen in Ibiza, Spain, asking for money for Africa.
One of the videos that left netizens chuckling showed them pretending to be homeless and asking for donations.This move was met with a backlash from some, who deemed it as “disgusting” and “embarrassing,” with some even going as far as to call it “sick” and urging Somizi, a grown man, to stop his actions.
Despite the criticism, Somizi, known for his lavish lifestyle and fashionable appearances at the annual Durban July horse racing event, chose to skip the event this year and instead travel to Ibiza with his close friends, including Moshe Ndiki and Ndo Maleho.

In the past, Somizi had used the Durban July as a platform to showcase the work of up-and-coming designers, further solidifying his reputation as a champion of young talent.
Somizi’s absence from the Durban July was not well-received by many South Africans, who were disappointed to see the popular media personality thousands of kilometers away from home, enjoying himself to the fullest.
However, Somizi seemed unfazed by the criticism, as he shared photos of himself and his friends boarding a first-class flight to Dubai, captioning it “Durban Newly.” The group later shared videos of themselves sipping champagne at the first-class bar on the Emirates flight, further fueling the controversy.
Ultimately, it appears that Somizi and his friends are reveling in their Ibiza experience, with Somizi even declaring that they might not be returning anytime soon. Despite the backlash, they seem to be unapologetically enjoying their time abroad, leaving their critics to ponder the merits and ethics of their actions.
