TikTok terror Mizzy’s mother says ‘he needs to get a job’

The mother of TikTok terror Mizzy has spoken out for the first time about her controversial son and admitted: “He needs to get a job.”

This week the BBC invited the 18-year-old, who preys on vulnerable people to create his social media videos, on to its flagship programme Newsnight, creating an outcry.

Mizzy, whose real name is Bacari-Bronze O’Garro, was bailed on Tuesday after spending three nights in custody accused of breaking a court order by posting more videos after a court was told his mother Donna had agreed to “have him home”.

But Donna, 51, has now broken her silence about her son to say that does not mean she intends to support him, and she is very unhappy with his actions.

“I’ve had enough,” she told the Mail. “Even if he goes to the shop, he does his stupid little pranks. I don’t like what he’s doing – I’m not supporting him.

“He needs to find a job and sort himself out. That’s what he needs to do. He’s a very clued up kid — he’s very clued up. Bacari was very good at school. He has an education.”

O’Garro has gained notoriety because of his “prank” videos, which include him stealing an elderly woman’s dog, ripping up library books and jumping into strangers’ cars.

“I’m the face of the internet right now,” the teenager has declared.

He has also boasted: “Hate brings money, hate brings likes, hate brings views. It doesn’t matter, love or hate, it still brings views. It is just easier to do the hateful stuff.”

Other footage showed him attempting to leapfrog a Jewish man, putting his hands on his shoulders from behind and pushing him into the road as he did so. Several of his videos have involved members of the large orthodox Jewish community in Stoke Newington, the north-west London area where he lives.

After being banned from YouTube, Instagram and TikTok, he has announced plans to set up on another live streaming service to cash in on his content.

He has also revealed that he is now taking advice from Andrew and ­Tristan Tate, who are under house arrest in Romania on suspicion of being involved in organised crime and human trafficking.

“The Tates have been helping me immensely, teaching me to actually take people’s feelings in and hold more accountability for my actions as I develop into a man,” he said.

Andrew Tate has been banned from various social media platforms for his misogynistic views and hate speech.

O’Garro, who is the father of a baby boy, is no longer in education. By the time he sat his GCSEs he was in a pupil referral unit , having been kicked out of five schools.

“Still passed all of them,” says O’Garro. “I coulda done way better, but GCSEs don’t define who you are. I am an intellect in my own way.”

Neighbours say his activities left many of them too afraid to leave their homes. “I’ve known Bacari all his life and since he got into TikTok he’s been nothing but trouble,” said one.

Another neighbour said: “Bacari is a TikTok terror and a waste of space. We’re sick and tired of his stupid behaviour and these videos he makes. “
