Molemo ‘Jub Jub’ Maarohanye has yet to issue a statement on the bombshells dropped by actress Amanda Du-Pont in her viral tell-all but, from our observations, it seems the rapper has opted to take the high road.
Jub Jub disables comments on social media
The convicted culpable murderer sent social media into a raucous earlier this week when, during an interview on MacG’s controversial Podcast and Chill, he divulged details of his past sex life with Du-Pont and singer Kelly Khumalo.
In the interview, Maarohanye accused Khumalo’s alleged use of ‘muthi’ — or rather, love spells — as the chief reason behind his break up with the former Skeem Saam star.
In this viral clip, the rapper claimed he was in a three-year relationship with Du-Pont in his hey-day, but that things fell apart when Khumalo came into the picture.
Refusing to let her name be dragged through the mud, Du-Pont responded with a gob-smacking tell-all, where she clarified a number of things, including allegations that her relationship with the rapper was more of an entrapment she was too afraid to leave.
The actress added that Maarohanye sexually assaulted her for two years and she was too afraid to say anything about it since she had been threatened numerous times about the consequences that would follow.
Du-Pont encouraged more women to come forward and break their silence and, sure enough, a slew of fresh allegations surfaced.
Masechaba Khumalo, former broadcaster and now spokesperson of Minister Nathi Mthethwa, was one of the first women to come out with claims of being sexually assaulted by Maarohanye.
Shockingly, Khumalo alleged the rape took place at the residence of Jackie, Maarohanye’s mother who is popularly known as Mama Jackie.
I believe @AmandaDupont. Molemo Maarohanye (Jub Jub) raped me too. It happened in Mama Jakie's house in Naturena. He was my boyfriend. I was a teenager. I was a virgin. https://t.co/OcL9zY8YNN

A second woman, musician Bonokuhle Mtsweni who is a relative of Jub Jub, also came forward claiming she was raped by the rapper back when she was 17 years old.
Shortly after Moja Love TV released a statement confirming the suspension of the rapper slash host of Uyajola 9/9, a female employee of the channel, Refilwe Kumalo came out with her story, alleging that Jub Jub was notorious for making unwanted sexual advances towards staff members.
I worked closely with Molemo “jub jub” at MojaLove tv & experienced many sexual advances which were declined.

His interview on Mac G’s podcast was reckless & he deserves the back lash.

The rapper and his legal team have refused to take questions on the scandal at this time, and while he’s yet to release a statement, Jub Jub disabled his comments and deleted questionable images from his social media.
