Ntsiki Mazwai reacts to Gogo Skhotheni's decision
Social media users were livid following her announcement, as some people said she was sending out the wrong message. @mbaliphk said this gives some people the impression that this act is completely against God.
"The transition into being a “child of God” is so annoying because it puts emphasis on people’s belief that working for ancestors is demonic. When they’re the ones practicing ungodly acts using imithi."
South African poet and activist Ntsiki Mazwai advised Skhotheni to lay off social media for a while and mourn in peace. This comes after she tragically lost her son.
"This one just needs to take her mourning period seriously and get off social media. It’s that simple."
Many other celebrities have taken this decision in the past.
