Singer, rapper, and voice-over artist XXC Legacy has taken to social media to reveal how Lwazi Cele has betrayed an agreement they had to share their win on “Wheel of Fortune South Africa”.
XXC Legacy, real name Courtney Mthethwa, entered “Wheel of Fortune” which airs on S3 with Sanele ‘Skhindi’ Ngcobo and Lwazi Cele. The episode was recorded in July and aired in October.
The trio entered together as a way of increasing their chances of winning and subsequently they did win, they won a car valued at over R200,000.
XXC Legacy shared on Twitter that Cele had gone against their agreement to split the prize equally after they won a brand new Suzuki Celerio GL, which is R 225 900.00 recommended retail according to Cars.co.za.
Throughout the episode, Cele, XXC Legacy and Ngcobo had mentioned that they will be splitting the prize, even the shows host Rorisang Thandekiso acknowledged the prize would be split.
However, once the prize was handed over and registered in Cele’s name, he disregarded the agreement and allegedly sold the car on his own for his own reward.
XXC Legacy and Ngcobo after reaching out to Cele numerous times unsuccessfully issued him with a legal demand after he sold the car and failed to split the profits.
XXC Legacy told that since Cele was served with the letter of demand, he has been silent on the matter.
“He has been posting threats and subliminal messages on his social media, which seems to be an indirect way of addressing the situation.
