Johannesburg - Controversial businessman, Kenny Kunene has raised eyebrows after a series of messages on Twitter where he compares white people to monkeys.

Kenny starts off by insisting that "whites compare blacks to monkeys all the time. Let's see similarities between white people in the next five pics tweets."

This message is then followed by a series of images comparing white people to monkeys, with one image showing a naked man with the caption "Mr Sparrow patently waiting for Penny to suck that dick".



Kenny, who was previously known as the Sushi King for throwing outrageous parties where he was often photographed eating sushi off of naked women's bodies, made headlines last year for outing the high-profile women he claims he slept with.

The news was leaked ahead of the release of his upcoming tell-all book. In it, Kenny claimed to have bedded respected actress, Sophie Ndaba, calling her toxic. At the time, Sophie confirmed the relationship to The Juice, saying she is disappointed by Kenny's claims.

Kenny ended his messages with this message: "Unless we fight back they will take our dignity away... they think they are superior, no they are not."

Here's some of the messages posted by Kenny:

Last week saw the country up in arms after estate agent, Penny Sparrow compared black people to monkeys.

After that incident, Standard Bank's Chris Hart was suspended pending an inquiry to his comments regarding Apartheid and Gareth Cliff was fired from Idols after comments made regarding freedom of speech.

UPDATE: Kenny has since removed his tweets.
