The well-known social media influencer Mihlali Ndamase has admitted to being the target of allegations made by her partner, Leeroy Sidambe.
Since Ndamase shared mysterious pictures of her face injuries on social media on Sunday, the couple has been the focus of a social media controversy. Before deleting the stories, she captioned the photos with “Thank you, my angel” and tagged Sidambe’s Instagram account, giving the impression that he was the one who was at fault.
Sidambe responded by releasing a statement in which she denied ever attacking Ndamase and claimed to have attacked him in the past.
Ndamase refuted Sidambe’s assertions in an interview with City Press, asserting that she is the victim in the relationship and providing proof to back up her assertion.
“I have voice notes and recordings of Leeroy assaulting me. In his statement, why didn’t he say that he assaulted me, and it was not the first time he physically abused me. Verbal abuse has been going on for two years, but I am not going to go back and forth. He knows his truth, so yeah, it is what it is,” she said
However, Ndamase added that she would not share the proof, as she wanted to move on with her life.
In his statement, Sidambe claimed that Ndamase left 78 missed calls on his phone before arriving at his house, accusing him of infidelity and attempting to stab him with a knife. He said his son had rescued him after hearing his father’s pleas.
Ndamase acknowledged calling Sidambe 78 times and having proof of his cheating, but she rubbished the claims of trying to stab him.
“I did call him, and he is the one who asked me to go to his house so we can talk. There was evidence that he was [cheating]. Financially, I don’t need his money, emotionally and physically, yes [he has been abusive],” Ndamase said, adding that she did not wish to comment further on the matter.
