South African singer, Lloyd Cele has denied rumours he’s set to lose his multimillion Rand home after falling behind on payments. The 2010 Idols SA runner-up hit back at a local publication, Zimoja for publishing a false report that the singer could no longer afford repayments on his home.
“According to court papers seen by Zimoja, Cele and his wife Sandeine entered into an agreement with the bank to have access to the millions, and used their Midstream Estate Mansion as security for the loan.
Cele and his wife, the papers show were expected to pay a monthly instalment of R15 000, and were supposed to finish paying off the loan in 250 instalments.
However the papers shows that, the ‘Make it Easy’ hitmaker couldn’t honour the agreement to its completion and defaulted on his agreement with the bank. The court papers show that he failed to pay his monthly instalment on the loan for eight months, leaving his accounts in arrears to the tune of R157 000.”
Zimoja, a publication claimed Lloyd Cele and his wife were going to lose their home
Not only did the publication fail to verify the claims but it also published incorrect information regarding Lloyd’s wife.
The singer’s wife’s name is Janice not Sandeine and Lloyd called the news a fabrication as he said this was not true.
Speaking to TshisaLive, Lloyd said the report was “quite depressing” and untrue. He told the publication he was not aware of any such court order and found the report to be a blot on his reputation.
Lloyd and his wife have been married for 15-years and he has a new single, Paradise out.
