 Zodway Waybantu sets the record straight over ARVs and HIV status. Exhibitionist dancer and reality TV star Zodway Waybantu raised eyebrows when she posted a picture of a glass of water with an ARV pill and asked her followers what time they take their pill. According to her, she explained that what really happened is that it's sad that people are dying of HIV and AIDS, simply because they are afraid to talk about ARVs and their HIV status. The publication understands that it turns out the picture was part of promoting the latest episode of her reality show Zodway Waybantu Uncensored on MOHA Love. It was an attempt to create conversation and open a dialogue on the topic, she told the citizen. People are afraid of Waybantu Bazothani, what will people say? No one wants to talk about this or wants to say they are taking this medication, all they want to talk about is champagne and a nice life. Zodway says she is an influencer and wants to convey a message of support in the fight again HIV slash AIDS. We must support our friends, colleagues, people we know who are sick, and tell them they must take their medication. Her stunt sparked conversation, with many sharing what time they take their ARV medication and how they do not care about any stigma surrounding HIV, as their main concern is to be alive. In a video of her dropping a bag with multiple pills spilling over the floor, the star called ARVs Jacksons. People were concerned about her health. If a person has it or doesn't have it, HIV, what would you do? Why does it matter to you? It is personal. However, she did clarify that she went and looked for the ARVs to buy, filled a glass of water, and then took the picture. I have lost many friends through this. People are still not educated enough about it. Black people are so effed up and backward. The reactions show this, it doesn't matter if I have it or not, it is about informing people. I am not scared of anybody. She advised that people should get tested and talk with their partners about consent and HIV slash AIDS. Speaking to the publication, Zodway Waybantu said after the video and IG post, people have been asking her if she's really HIV positive. The entertainer said those interested in her status were missing the point of the conversation. Whether I have HIV or not, is not for anybody but the person I know, however, I want the conversation about taking ARVs to start because it can save lives. People are dying when there's a medication that can save them. People are dying because they are scared of the stigma attached to taking AMA jacksons, and that's a shame because these people could choose life. There is nothing sadder than people dying because they are scared of how others will react or what others will say if they see their pills. Zodway said she's known since season one, particularly after the Kenyemba confrontation episode, that people have questioned her HIV status. I know that people have asked the question about my status. Others don't even ask, they make up their minds that I'm positive because of my lifestyle, but I don't care. Whether I'm positive or not is none of their business. They can continue speculating, but what I want my fans to understand is that there's no shame in taking ARVs.
