JazziQ Reacts To Claims That Some Women Asked For Voting Allowance. The Electoral Commission has written to Home Affairs minister Aaron Motsoaledi requesting that he facilitates a request to the president asking for election day, Monday, 1 November, to be declared a public holiday. This intervention is aimed at affording all voters an equal footing to participate in the elections without being encumbered by business and employment considerations on the day of voting, the commission said in a statement.
On the 1st of November, it was a public holiday particularly for voting day. Amapiano star Mr JazziQ has reacted to claims that some women wanted allowance for voting. JazziQ jokingly asked who exactly are the women voting for if they require voting allowance. See tweet:
JazziQ was recently trending on social media after a viral video of him giving a fan an awkward starre. The Woza hitmaker was playing a set when a fan jumped on stage and started dancing to the music. Mr JazziQ noticed her next to the DJ booth. He was confused and stared at the fan until she stopped dancing and promptly left to join the rest of the crowd. The crowd were not impressed with the way that JazziQ handled the situation. People on social media were also not forgiving as some users accused Mr JazziQ of being mean and arrogant. Although the responses from social media users was mixed, the main conversation centred around consent. With many raising concerns with the double standards that are applied to men and women.
