Celebrity traditional healer and media personality Makgotso Mofokeng, widely known as Gogo Maweni, has found herself at the center of a storm as news of her arrest spreads across social media. Maweni is facing serious charges of murder and assault, stemming from accusations made by fellow traditional healer, Patricia Motsoeneng, better known as Gogo Skhotheni.
The feud between the two traditional healers escalated when Gogo Skhotheni publicly accused Gogo Maweni of being involved in two separate murders. During a TikTok live session, Skhotheni detailed the allegations, claiming that one of the incidents involved the death of Maweni’s best friend’s husband. According to Skhotheni, Maweni allegedly lured her friend King Precious’s husband outside, under the false pretense of receiving a gift, where he was then shot and killed.
In her defense, Gogo Skhotheni presented what she described as “proof” of her claims, including case numbers, and challenged Gogo Maweni to take legal action if the accusations were false. While the two women reportedly made peace following the public confrontation, the drama did not end there. The ongoing controversy has now led to Maweni’s arrest, which has sparked widespread reactions on social media.
As a well-known public figure, news of her arrest has been met with a mix of support and criticism online. Many social media users, including popular influencers like Chris Excel, The Instigator, and Aphelele Tyelbooi, have expressed their approval of Maweni’s arrest, with some celebrating it publicly. The situation has ignited a conversation about justice, celebrity culture, and the legal battles facing public figures in South Africa.
As Maweni’s legal journey continues, social media remains abuzz with reactions, and the case is expected to keep the public’s attention in the coming weeks.
