Nomzamo Mbatha faces backlash for calling Durban a small town

Nomzamo Mbatha has recently found herself at the center of controversy after referring to Durban as “a small town” during a conversation with Americans. The South African actress and philanthropist, known for her international success, made the comment while discussing her roots in an interview.

The statement sparked a backlash on social media, with many South Africans expressing their disappointment. Critics argued that her description undermines the significance and cultural richness of Durban, which is one of South Africa’s largest and most vibrant cities.

In response to the criticism, some fans have defended Mbatha, suggesting that her intention was to convey her humble beginnings rather than diminish Durban’s importance. However, the comment has stirred a broader conversation about the portrayal of African cities on international platforms and the responsibility of public figures to represent their origins accurately.

Nomzamo has yet to address the backlash directly, but the incident has certainly reignited discussions about the perceptions of African cities abroad.
