Johannesburg – Since Amanda du Pont posted the emotional video on her Instagram account claiming that Jub Jub raped her for two years, local celebs have been rallying behind her.
In the video, she said that although she was in a relationship with Jub Jub, whose real name is Molemo Maarohanye, he didn’t “smash” her, but rather abused and raped her multiple times.
She also said she didn’t leave because of jealousy issues regarding Kelly Khumalo.

This comes after the airing of the season finale of Podcast and Chill with MacG on Channel O, Wednesday evening, where Ju-Jub was a celebrity guest.
In the episode, Jub-Jub said amongst other girls, he “smashed” Amanda DuPont before he went to jail.
The episode triggered Amanda and she came forward, recorded a video where she said,” Jub-Jub did not smash me, he raped me for 2 years,”.
On Friday, Masechaba Khumalo came forward and alleged that artist and television presenter Jub Jub has raped her too.
Khumalo, the former Metro FM presenter, said Jub Jub violated her when she was a teenager at his mother’s house in Naturena south of Joburg .
She said when Jub Jub raped her she was still a virgin.

Since then, many celebs and activist organisation, Women For Change took to their social media platforms, saying they stand behind Amanda.
Women For Change is an NPO to create awareness and raise funds to end Gender-Based Violence in South Africa.
Take a look at some of them below:
The Mac G and Jub Jub podcast is the most degrading piece of content I wish I never consumed. I couldn’t even finish it! You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. Women can’t be spoken about like this and it’s condoned?! Do better!!!

I believe @AmandaDupont. Molemo Maarohanye (Jub Jub) raped me too. It happened in Mama Jakie's house in Naturena. He was my boyfriend. I was a teenager. I was a virgin. https://t.co/OcL9zY8YNN

https://t.co/HdE7QOyJfL My side- I was raped and physically abused by Jub Jub. Only thing I did wrong was keep quiet. That ends here. GBV is absolutely unacceptable!! I will not be publicly ridiculed by a criminal! Rape is not smashing!! Time we deal with this demon✊🏽
