DRIP footwear brand owner, Lekau Sehoana has recently issued a statement with intentions to curb the reports of his alleged eviction with his soon-to-be ex-wife and son from his home in Waterfall Estate due to failing to produce R35k rent.
ZiMoja reported that the businessman’s family lost his home after he could not continue with his monthly rent at the estate.
Disputing the claims, Lekau took to his Instagram page to share the statement that denies the claims previously reported by other media outlets.
In the statement, Lekau said the reports are factually incorrect and it is intended to divert the public’s attention from DRIP’s five-year celebration.
“First I have not lived with my soon-to-be ex since 2021 and I have no access to my son. I was renting the property for my soon-to-be ex in order to provide a home for my son.
“Second, I was previously notified by the landlord informing me that the police sought access to the property in order to seek her assistance with their investigations into the murder of DRIP’s former MD, Ms Glenda Ndlanzi,” he said.
Adding to that he said that upon arrival, the police discovered that she sub-let to people he did not know without his or the landlord’s consent; which is a total breach of the lease agreement.

Speaking to ZiMoja, Lekau’s soon-to-be ex-wife Lebogang said:
“We are tired of the abuse, the lies and tricks of Lekau, as we speak his very own son is homeless and out of school with no food and no clothes, He even got a court order to pay maintenance and take responsibility as he has not for years. In March 2024 he boldly lied during the launch of Claws sneakers saying his kids would remain in school regardless of the liquidation case against him knowing very well that his son has been staying at home for years and he had a maintenance court order against him,” she said.
