Celebrity chef and media personality Somizi Mhlongo has been facing theft accusations for a while now. And he was quiet about it, but he has finally released an official statement. Sharing his part of the story and attempting to clear his name.

Hastings Moeng accused Somizi of stealing his intellectual property. To break it down for you, Hastings sent Somizi an email pitching an idea for a cooking show. The email entailed the concept he wanted for the show, ‘Dinner Kwa Somizi‘. Only for Somizi to end up starting his show with the same concept years later with Dinner At Somizi.
