Dr Malinga has been receiving donations from celebrities and ordinary South Africans since breaking down on 'Podcast and Chill with MacG', revealing that he is having serious financial difficulties.

South African musician and entertainer Dr Malinga moved the hearts of many South Africans last week when he shared the heartbreaking story of how COVID-19 affected his income and left him owing SARS R500,000.

On 'Podcast and Chill with MacG', he said he lost his car and his house is empty because SARS auctioned his stuff and he still owes them R500,000.

'Podcast and Chill with MacG' asked their followers to help the television personality.

As a result, the entertainer says he has been receiving donations from the followers of the podcast.

He thanked 'Podcast and Chill with MacG' for helping him with his financial woes and for restoring his dignity.

"Podcast and chill with MacG Sol, Phenduka n Chillers you showed me too much guys, you restored my dignity, God bless," he wrote on Twitter.
