An unknown person spread false rumours on Twitter that Mzansi actress Sophie Ndaba has died on Tuesday.
Sophie is famous for playing the role of Queen Moroka on the SABC 1 soapie Generations.
This rumour quickly spread on the Twitter streets and it is currently one of the trending topics.
When people started asking for the source of the rumour, some tweeps alleged that SABC’s Expresso Show is the one that broke the news.
However, Expresso Show quickly denied being the ones behind the news.
They tweeted that rumours about Sophie's death is false and that they did not report on any news about Sophie Ndaba today.
Apparently, the person who started the rumour has locked their Twitter account.
The year is 2018. The mentally disturbed masses are still lying about the death of people in the public domain. Will it ever end? We'll never know. ?? Will they ever change? I doubt it. ??
