Sbu and Shauwn are involved in a legal tussle regarding the ownership of the GladAfrica Championship club.
In an Instagram post, Andile slammed his father for sponging off his mother and also revealed the emotional abuse the family endured at the hands of his father, Sbu.
“The lies and the cheating that resulted in him fathering, at least four kids at this time outside of his marriage, that I am aware of… using her hard earned resources to maintain them. You see uMa, tried elevating her husband by setting him up with his own businesses, that she would still pump money into, because yet again, she couldn’t bare his emasculation, as self-inflicted as it was… those have all since closed since their separation, as he ran them dry.
“Yesterday, I bid farewell to the legacy uMa had set up for me. Yesterday I truly felt pain for my mother, who had endured 25 years of marriage with a sucker of her blood. As bitter as it was to let go of ROYAL EAGLES FOOTBALL CLUB, it was worth more to maintain the carefree spirit, with no anxiety I have seen on uMa since the separation from her husband. He is her husband, because he won’t grant her the wish to be divorced of him,” read part of Andile’s Instagram account.
“He continues to slander her through media and gossip, yet she still maintains his life as he lives in HER property. Not paying a single utility bill. I call him her husband and not my father because a father would not go on 2 years without speaking to his son. A father would not intentionally LIE & STEAL what was built for his son. A father provides and does not take from the mother to rob his son.
“I wish the club all of the best in this new GLAD Championship season and know that we will stay family in our hearts. These are tough and confusing times, being led by a man who failed at leading his own household, it won’t be easy, but we trust he will seek the minds of those who know leadership, because the club is bigger than one family’s dispute, as many families depend on it…”
