In a now deleted post Linda said, “DJ Fantan you have lost a fan today. Honestly we can’t have influencers being drug peddlers & drug lords whilst some of us are busy trying to find ways to clean up youths, you are busy promoting use of drugs. We are fast losing a generation to drug & substance abuse #sad.”

In response to the post Fantan called Linda and asking her to explain where she got a picture which she claims Fantan was carrying a plastic of drugs.

“I will sue her and she will be hearing from my lawyer, Mr. Dumi Mthombeni if she keeps up manyepo akadai…”

    If there’s anyone to blame for youths abusing drugs, it is ZANU PF. I don’t know much about this Fantan guy but I don’t think he fits the description. Chinokonzera mayouths to indulge in drugs is being forcibly living in poverty and starvation due to lack of resources around. Hakuna mabasa, industries have been turned into mushrooming churches, some dubious. Given circumstances like this, youths go for the easier way out i.e drug abuse. Changing the economic tides is the only way out vanhu veZANU PF vana ED
