This is how some reacted to their tweet
How I wish Sbu and Shauwn Mpisane could take @Doves_Funerals to task for trying hard to get publicity at the expense of their daughter, Sibahle. That tweet you have deleted was in bad taste and your company shud be dealt with for such trashy post. Yaz niphabene lapho e majuba pic.twitter.com/2xMn6OtvbE
