DJ Zinhle’s recent radio interview on young unemployment remains a source of concern.
DJ Zinhle’s chat about Mzansi’s unemployed youngsters went viral. The Indlovu hitmaker attracted controversy for claiming that young people lack the requisite abilities to enter the work market.
“One thing about the South African youth is not just that they are unemployed; a lot of them are unemployable. They don’t have the skills required.”
The celebrity cited the arduous recruitment procedure at Era. DJ Zinhle is alluding to her argument regarding a lack of talents.
“It bugs me how long it takes for us to fill positions as Era, just to find the right person for our shops. It takes longer than it should in a country that has so much unemployment.”
DJ Zinhle apologized for the uproar and clarified her intentions in her message.
Netizens criticized DJ Zinhle for being unaware of the country’s true difficulties and the reasons for the high employment rate.
Then, funny memes started flooding in, with people ridiculing her by insinuating that she requires an MBA to sell her jewelry.
@CuriousBob28 sarcastically said:
“Lmao. A qualification from Oxford or Cambridge because ERA is a global conglomerate.”
@fhunora stated:
“She can ask for that, but chances are the salary doesn’t match the skill she is requesting.”
Commenting directly under DJ Zinhle’s Instagram post, @redcup_ho said:
“After that stunt you pulled about South African youth being ‘unemployable’ to work at a shop, you dropped the bar. It was so low even for you, mam. I don’t know what you celebrities think you are, especially you. Something about you is giving cocky. You think you are doing people favours. It says a lot about you. We can already tell by how you treat your friends.”
