A South African Influencer Onezwa Mbola is now viral after claiming that Nara Smith has been stealing her content and profiting off off of it on Tiktok.
Nara Smith is a ‘made from scratch’ creator who is known for her unique voice often making things for her husband Lucky Blue Smith and three children Whimsey, Rumble and Slim.
Onezma Mbola also makes her food from scratch using a soft soothing voice making food for her family directly from her farm.
Both women recently made Boba tea which was oddly coincidental.

So Did Nara Steal from Onezwa?
The internet is torn on the topic some claiming both women have different styles even though the content is similar.
Others blatantly accusing Nara of stealing!
Watch both women make Boba Tea:

Let me tell you how Onezwa’s response was a masterclass in violence. She cuddled that chicken and slaughtered it. ‘Nara it is very apparent that you’re not the first person to make Boba because the first person to make Boba knew it needs to fit through a straw.’ pic.twitter.com/ANLnsCd0HK

What we will say about this whole situation is Onezwa needs to keep making content, there is room for both.
Let us know what you think.
