Toya Delazy Criticised For Disrespecting Zulu Culture For Wearing Ibheshu. Musician Toya Delayze who is also the grandchild of IFP Leader Mangosuthu Buthelezi has been receiving a load of criticism from people for wearing a traditional attire Ibheshu. Ibheshu is classified as a Zulu male traditional clothing worn occasionally. Toya was rocking it during a birthday celebration of his grandfather. The critics raised more a point of how a woman in the Zulu culture is forbidden to wear it.

 

Toya hit back labelling the criticism homophobic and put it in the same category as racism and sexism.

“Homophobia, racism and sexism are exactly the same, at least the racists shut up when they are busted. Stop feeling entitled to my body black brother. You trying to harm the wrong person,” she said.

She shared pictures from the ceremony and claimed the outfit was official dress for “Zulu girls with different genders”.
