Idols SA star Sneziey Msomi has finally broken her silence after her six-month-old daughter, Owomusa, became the target of brutal online bullying.
In an Instagram rant, Sneziey acknowledged that she may have been a bully herself during her time on the singing competition, but that does not give anyone the right to involve her innocent child in the negative drama.
Sharing adorable selfies of herself and her daughter, Sneziey expressed her disappointment at the mockery her baby girl had faced. However, after seeing the extent of the bullying, she made the difficult decision to remove the pictures.
In her heartfelt message, Sneziey expressed her concern for her daughter’s future self-esteem, fearing that she would grow up with the weight of her mother’s alleged bullying hanging over her. The singer lamented the fact that her music never trends like the cyberbullying she receives, and now her daughter is being targeted because of her “bully mom.”
Sneziey’s plea was simple: leave her daughter out of the negativity. She emphasized that Owomusa is only six months old and should not have to suffer the consequences of her mother’s past actions. Sneziey also revealed her own struggles with self-hatred and regret for participating in Idols SA, a show that she feels did not defend her when she needed it most.
As a mother and a wife, Sneziey requested that her daughter be spared from any further negative drama. It is heartbreaking to see a child become the topic of mean discussions, and Sneziey’s message serves as a reminder to treat each other with kindness and empathy, both online and offline.
Let us hope that Sneziey’s plea resonates with those who have targeted her daughter, and that they understand the importance of protecting the innocence of young children.
