Taking to Twitter‚ Sjava has since apologised for the situation.

"I had a great time and sorry to everyone that got hurt coz of the stampede when I leave the house to go perfom my plan is to make people happy not ukuthi balimale ngiyaxolisa kakhulu (for them to get hurt‚ therefore I am very sorry) I understand people show love kodwa asingalimazani (but let's not hurt each other) guys‚" he said.

During a homecoming event that was held at OR Tambo International Airport last week‚ Sjava said that all he wanted to do was make his mom proud.
