When Lee-Anne “Gogo Maweni” Mokopo made her reality TV debut on Izangoma Zodumo, she attracted a sizable following. Now that she has established herself as a well-known sangoma in Mzansi, Moja Love has given the reality TV star her own show.
The well-known sangoma joyfully shared the news on her social media that she had been selected for the May 6 launch of the reality series Thokoza Gogo. She promised that her followers will see the genuine Gogo Maweni.
“Now that my spouse is joining me on the show, I can show the world who I really am on my own platform. I have plenty of time to demonstrate who I am to the public, she told TshisaLIVE.
Gogo Maweni has been in the news on a number of times, including claims that her marriage is in trouble and a falling-out with her ex-friend Gogo Skhotheni.
In the show’s teaser, Gogo Maweni and her husband talk about their adopted child and infidelity as well as traditional rituals.
Fighting is common. Being married does not guarantee that every day will be joyful. We have been very deliberate in what we display and what we want the world to know through Ubungoma. I never yell out people’s names even when they can see me mixing muti.
But there has been a lot of controversy surrounding the show, when a white Sangoma made an appearance, this caused a stir on social media with some questioning his ancestry because people believe only black people can be Sangomas.
