DJ Cleo's dad denies being 'mentally ill'

Sjoe, family feuds can get ugly hey.

Last week DJ Cleo told the entire nation that his dad, Samuel was mentally ill.

DJ Cleo was being interviewed on 3Talk with Noeleen Maholwana-Sangqu, where he addressed all those reports that he was  a dead-beat son.

At the time Cleo's dad told media that he felt neglected by his son who doesn't visit, doesn't assist financially, and neglects the an aging man.

Cleo told the country that his father was mentally-ill and doesn't even remember saying any of that.

Now, a livid Samuel told Sunday Sun that Cleo lied through his teeth. "I'm not mentally-ill and he has insulted me on national TV. The situation is still the same as last year, no Father's Day gifts or wishes, no Christmas gifts from him,' he added.

Cleo's sister also confirmed that her father was not  mentally-ill and couldn't understand why her brother would say something like that.

Yikes!
