Ntsiki Mazwai, a poet, musician, and all-around controversial Twitter user, is one of only a few female blue app personalities to join the elite group of problematic Twitter accounts. She is a member of the elite divisive and “problematic” group that includes Chris Excel, Musa Khawula, and Nhlamula “Nota” Baloyi, depending on who you ask.
Mazwai, on the other hand, had distanced herself from a Twitter account like Chris Excel. She has been more ambivalent about accounts such as Musa Khawula, and for a time appeared to support Nota’s erratic and trend-seeking behavior on Twitter. However, it appears that she began to distance herself from Nota on other platforms such as Podcast and Chill, and has now joined the many voices suggesting that Nota may require some mental health intervention.
Ntsiki blocks Nota
We learned about the breakdown in Ntsiki Mazwai and Nota’s “friendship” two weeks ago when it was revealed that Mazwai had decided to block him from her social media accounts. In part, the article explained:
“…Mazwai has not only distanced herself and her brand from its association with him. But she has also blocked Nota on social media.
Nota in a video has since suggested that Mazwai blocked him because she could not handle the truth. Comparing himself to Mazwai, Nota indicated that he is able to receive constructive criticism from social media while Mazwai would rather block naysayers on her timeline.

Mazwai on the other hand, when asked what happened to change the nature of her relationship with Nota, would not go into detail. But she did make it clear that she does not want to give him “airtime.” Moreover, she reiterated her stance that she believes that Nota has mental issues that he has not dealt with.”
"NOTA bores me, let's not talk about him" 😲
Ntsiki Mazwai when asked about her fall out with NOTA Baloyi 😭😭

Ntsiki Mazwai comes for Nota
While Mamiya might have not had time to speak about the breakdown in her relationship with Nota. It seems she has no problem using his name during a quiet day on social media to “create conversation.” This follows after Nota made headlines for allegedly following a female JMPD officer to her residency in order to take her to task for allegedly absconding her duties during loadshedding, leaving the responsibility of managing traffic to the homeless.
Mazwai finally joined the many voices suggesting that Nota is really in need of mental health, rather than constant suggestions of him being “the South African Kanye West.” This is as everytime he seeks to trend his target is usually women, specifically his wife, Berita, or Mihlali Ndamase and when all fails recently, seemingly female JMPD officers.
This is South Africa where a deranged man followed a female traffic officer home…….. And nothing is said or done.

Moreover, Mazwai finally joined the bandwagon of naysayers when Nota continues to suggest that he made Kwesta. A statement which is polarising as many, like Mazwai now reiterates, if it was so easy, “Why can he not do it again?”
He is so brilliant he made Kwesta but he can't make someone else!???? Pls man… We have been watching Kwesta's journey since he was Sliquors project……
But you don't see Sliquors claiming Kwesta victories….

When Nota discovered Mazwai’s tweets, he addressed his stance on his former supporter and “friend” by claiming that the two could be two sides of the same coin. This is because he implied that Mazwai is just a “attention seeker,” a poet but not an activist.
Brilliant poet but not an activist, opinion leader but most definately NOT An activist… Now that’s that on that. Good morning, how did you sleep?
