The ongoing feud between the renowned sangomas, Dr. Maweni and Gogo Skhoteni, shows no signs of reconciliation. This feud came to the forefront on social media when the notorious X user, @ChrisExcel102, introduced Dr. Maweni into a post discussing the purported release of Gogo Skhoteni’s album.
The genesis of this drama, the so-called “battle of the sangomas,” was entirely unexpected by the Mzansi community. Both sangomas had initially garnered fame through their appearances on the reality show “Izangoma Zodumo.” Their early interactions suggested a close friendship. However, as per reports from IOL, allegations of business imitations swiftly shattered this facade.
The root of this conflict can be traced back to Gogo Skhoteni’s accusations against Dr. Maweni. Alleging that the snake-loving practitioner had copied a product she had recently launched. This ignited a series of clashes that spilled over into viral videos, ensnaring unsuspecting individuals in the crossfire.
This feud has cast a wide net, dragging several celebrities into its tumultuous waves. One of the most recent individuals drawn into the fray is Prince Kaybee, whose name surfaced in an X post that witnessed Dr. Maweni vociferously responding to both the X user and Gogo Skhoteni. The use of Prince Kaybee’s name hinted at a past romantic liaison with Gogo Skhoteni, further fueling the controversy. Another male celebrity embroiled in this intricate web is Oscar Mbo, with Dr. Maweni asserting that he had an intimate relationship with Gogo Skhoteni.
Within the sphere of online commentary, X users appeared to largely align with Dr. Maweni. Some fervently urged her to take decisive action against Gogo Skhoteni, endeavoring to settle the score and ascertain who holds greater sangoma power. Nevertheless, opposing voices contended that Dr. Maweni’s verbal exchanges were simply a case of fiery rhetoric. Suggesting that the X post did not carry the profound significance it appeared to possess.
The prospect of reconciliation and peaceful resolution in this tumultuous arena of traditional healers, known as the “dumba,” appears bleak. Both protagonists seem to harbor substantial egos, and the multitude of damaging accusations exchanged between them adds yet another layer of complexity to the conflict. As a result, the discord between these two prominent traditional healer figures shows no signs of subsiding. Perpetuating the drama that has captured the attention of many.
