Generations The Legacy actor Dali Malinga faces allegations of being a deadbeat father
Andile Nebulane, well-known for his role as Dali Malinga on the TV show Generations: The Legacy, has recently been the subject of rumours regarding his parental responsibilities.
These rumours were sparked by a post on Twitter from a woman named Amanda Waller, who claims to be the mother of Nebulane’s child. In her post, she wrote about Nebulane’s alleged absenteeism in the lives of his children.
“PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS MAN. His name is Andile Nebulane, better known as Dali from Generations. He’s a deadbeat that sleeps around, impregnates women, and then abandons his children.
Sasithe deadbeats must be named and shamed mos.”“He masquerades as a present father, yet he’ll disappear for weeks, leaving his children alone while on drinking sprees. Some of his kids don’t even know what R2 from him looks like, ke phof,” she added.
Mzansi weighs in
After Amanda Waller exposed Andile Nebulane’s alleged irresponsible behaviour as a father on Twitter, the reactions from the public were mixed. Some people showed no sympathy for Amanda and suggested that she discuss the issue privately with Nebulane instead of involving the public.
On the other hand, there were those who felt that it was unfair for Amanda’s plea to be ignored. These individuals called out Nebulane’s alleged deadbeat behaviour and criticized those who defended it.

The comments prove how SA as a nation normalised deadbeat syndrome so much that we make men's short comings something women should be accountable for. Is he not a fucking adult? Cant he also use a condom? Why didn't he get a vasectomy since he clearly has a kink for raw sex? https://t.co/O8gioncORX

A look at other celebrities implicated in deadbeat rumours
Andile Nebulane is not the only celebrity to face allegations of being an irresponsible parent. Last month, Presley Chweneyagae, an actor from the TV show The River, was featured on the Moja Love program ‘No Excuse Pay Papgeld’ for allegedly failing to provide for his son.
In 2018, The South African reported that Prince Kaybee’s child’s mother also accused him of not making child support payments. The woman’s identity was kept confidential but is believed to be from Limpopo. She claimed that since giving birth to their child in 2017, Prince Kaybee had never made time to see her.
