Didi Boke Tsari | FROM HERO TO ZEROOOOOO. A FORMER Orlando Pirates and Bafana Bafana star is facing hard times! Benedict “Tso” Vilakazi’s fame has gone up in smoke and he’s back ekasi. It was revealed that Tso is loafing around at his parents’ four-roomed house in Diepkloof, Soweto. The SunTeam has heard that Tso (32) is finding it hard to fit in. Neighbours claim the former talented midfielder only gets out of the house when he goes to ask his friends for R2,50 to buy a loose cigarette. “Tso is embarrassed to walk the streets as people are mocking him. They’re laughing at his downfall and he also feels bad about it,” said a childhood friend. He drinks at Mazazana’s tavern, a few blocks from his home. “He drinks quarts and is no longer that famous person we knew,” said a neighbour. Another neighbour added: “Tso lives in the backroom of his parents’ house and his soccer star friends have deserted him.” A witness who is known to Sunday Sun said: “Two weeks ago, Tso called Katlego Mphela, who was at Meat Meat in Diepkloof but ended up speaking to Vuyo Mere who said Tso is ‘problematic’.” Sunday Sun has heard Tso is job- hunting but refused to be employed as a taxi driver. “A neighbour told him he should just be a taxi driver as most guys in the area are taxi drivers. “If he doesn’t take his life seriously, he’ll end up doing illegal stuff. “And if you want to see how terrible he looks, come to Zone 2,” the neighbour said. On Friday Tso said: “People will always judge you despite anything you do. “People will always talk and say whatever about me but as long as my family is okay, I don’t have a problem. “I’m working towards my goals,” he said. The Nissan X-Trail Tso won from Orlando Pirates has no windscreen. Instead it’s covered with a plastic bag. [Credit: Didi Boke Tsari & Daily Sun]
