Gang Leader Hijacks DJ Sumbody Nightclub. The businessman who co-owns Ayepyep Lifestyle with slain musician DJ Sumbody, will not be returning to South Africa until alleged 28s gang leader, Ralph Stanfield, is arrested.

However, ever since DJ Sumbody was gunned down in November last year.

Setsetse says he has been living in fear as Stanfield has allegedly continued to threaten him, as he reportedly started doing so before the musician’s death.

“[Alleged 28s leader] Ralph Stanfield has threatened me. Knowing his capabilities, I can’t risk [it],” he told the publication.

Bitter fight over the Nightclub

In the court papers, Setsetse disclosed that DJ Sumbody introduced him to Stanfield – who portrayed himself as a family man.

The plan was that he would run their security when they opened the Ayepyep branch in Cape Town.

He is not able to operate because other gangsters would demand money from them or close them down.

However, business was not rosey between the Ayepyep owners and the alleged gang leader as he insisted on calling the shots.

He reportedly brought a security company to ensure safety in the club and insisted that his cousin be appointed as an “administration lady” while his wife, Nicole Johnson, ran the business because Setsetse and DJ Sumbody were in Gauteng.

After a while, the suspected mafia boss allegedly demanded shares and told the owners to issue the share certificate to his mother-in-law, Barbara Johnson. When they refused, Stanfield allegedly threatened to close down the operation and threatened staff.

“He show the media a video of a story on the news of luxury vehicles being vandalized at a business located in Cape Town for which he claimed that he was responsible,” Setsetse alleged.
