South African musician and entertainment personality Nomuzi Mabena has been accused of staging a car crash by the people of Twitter.
In the live Instagram video, which can now be found on YouTube, the artist is seen making an announcement after a night out when the car she’s in seems to crash.
No ad to show here.
Fans immediately took to Twitter to express their concerns but quickly found the footage and lack of news coverage suspicious. Thus sparking an ongoing debate.

An image circulating the platform suggested that the video was part of an awareness campaign for drunk driving.
Yet there are some who don’t buy that the video was staged at all.
Okay if it's arrive alive campaign.

1. How do you put up a pre-recorded video on a live stream?
2. December is gone why do it now?
3. Why not put up the video during prime time when everyone is awake instead of midnight?

Whether the crash was real, faked or really part of an awareness campaign, the debate continues to be Twitter’s top trend on Friday.
