'DJ Cleo abandons amputee dad' - report

Award-winning producer, DJ Cleo, also known as Tlou Cleopas Monyepao, has apparently abandoned his father.

DJ Cleo's father, Samuel Monyepao (64) apparently spoke to Dailysun and said he educated and supported his son up to the age of 25.

"When I think of all the money I spent on his education, my heart bleeds. I'm heartbroken, because my rich son doesn't give a rat's a**e about me!" said Samuel.

Samuel, who lives in Bochum, Limpopo, said: "The last time he was here he brought me a bucket of KFC. And this is the man who owns 10 houses in Johannesburg and more than a dozen cars.

"Tlou (DJ Cleo) never visited me in hospital after my right leg was cut off. If I call him, he tells me he is busy and gets angry when I ask to see my grandchildren.

"He knows the troubles I have – with no iron, heater or kettle, let alone enough food to eat," said Samuel.

Recently, DJ Cleo did a live broadcast from a Limpopo regional radio station.

Samuel heard him on the show and had this to say: "He was talking about his soccer career and being a biker.

"I was really hurt when he didn't even bother to set foot in my yard to see how I was doing."

A source reportedly close to the family said Cleo forgot about his dad after his parents' marriage ended in Springs and Samuel moved back to Bochum.

A family member, who asked to remain anonymous, said: "Tlou never visited his dad in hospital and the last time he came to visit him he never even asked what happened to his dad's missing leg. Samuel has diabetes and his leg had to be amputated."

DJ Cleo did not respond to the claims.
