Taking to X (formerly Twitter), he opened up to his followers, writing: “Not my car being repossessed on my birthday. I hate it here. I am so drained. If this is what rock bottom looks like, I don’t wish it even on my worst enemy. Happy Fuc**n Birthday to me.”

@makinkuna shared their own struggles, writing, “I’ve hit rock bottom before & it’s not a nice place to be, but now looking back I’m glad it happened, because the lessons I’ve learnt are valuable. I lost a car, a house, a relationship, a mother, grandmother, all in the space of 2 years but God is faithful. Be strong & forge ahead.”

@StraightupGal encouraged him to stay strong: “Tiisetso, God is rolling out the red carpet and making way for something bigger. You’ll be here in no time talking about the blessings you’ve received. Until then, ngwana ko gaye, may you endure the turbulence during this storm and come out stronger and happier. All the best – you got this!”

Despite the difficult moment, Tiisetso’s signature humour remained intact. He found a silver lining, joking, “The Content Creator in me took so much material from this. Can’t wait to create funny skits for you guys. Neighbors never fail to comment nonsense. One day, we will laugh again.”
