The gifted singer, who has been making waves in the music scene, described feelings of embarrassment and neglect during her hospital visit. She claims that the medical staff seemingly ignored her and her cousin, opting instead to assist white patients who arrived after them, resulting in a prolonged wait for both of them.

She expressed, “We were treated like dogs. It was humiliating to witness how they favored white individuals over us.”
TSZ Mzansi has reached out to Life Fourways Hospital to gather their viewpoint regarding these allegations, but no statement has been provided at this time.
Mzansi Responds: “Did She Expect Special Treatment?”
Social media reactions to Mawhoo’s claims have been mixed. Some users supported the hospital, emphasizing that triage prioritizes patients in critical conditions over a first-come-first-served basis. Meanwhile, others shared similar experiences, asserting that racial bias remains a significant issue in South African service sectors.
@Ihhashi_Turkei remarked: “I had a completely different experience with them; in fact, the service was top-notch. Perhaps mutual respect is crucial.”
@BlaqSabali commented: “I hope she didn’t expect to receive celebrity treatment 😂.”

@TheGeopol highlighted: “This happens frequently; even car guards tend to favor white individuals, and they hardly tip! Still, I believe public hospitals are not as problematic as people think.”
A Deeper Issue?
While some suggest Mawhoo was merely seeking special treatment, others argue that the inequities in service delivery due to race are a critical concern in South Africa. Whether this case reflects a misunderstanding of medical protocols or genuine discrimination, one thing remains clear—Mzansi is in deliberation.
