Deadbeat dad asks baby mama for R150

One deadbeat dad caused an uproar on social media leaving peeps in a media feeding frenzy after a phone call between him along with his baby mama went viral.

In the audio posted on Twitter he called his baby mama asking for R150, however the deadbeat man’s child picked up the phone and was happy to hear from the father but that was not the case for the deadbeat father.

The child asked if it was really him. The mother answered harshly and ordered to give the phone to her. The man then tells the lady he urgently needs R150, but she immediately mentions she has a headache and that the child keeps tugging at her. She added that she would only go to the clinic on the second day of the month. 

The man yelled that she should put the kids aside because he had an important issue and she should stop telling him about them. At the end of the audio, the child gets the phone back calling out to him and he responds: 

“Hai! Leave me alone! Hang up and leave me alone.” 

Many people could not believe how he spoke to his child, who was excited to speak to him. Peeps also laughed at the couple’s phone conversion.

Here is what people had to say: 

One user said: “I have no words for this ninja.”

Another commented: “Nah money is a problem bro.”

Another user wrote: “Is the kid even his? Akacasukile kanje. [He is so irritated’]”
