Gogo Maweni blames Gogo Skhotheni’s for her son’s death – VIDEO! Renowned sangomas Makgotso “Gogo Maweni” Mokopo and Patricia “Gogo Skhotheni” Motsoeneng have been embroiled in a heated public feud that has now taken an intensely personal turn.
In a recent social media outburst, Gogo Maweni accused Gogo Skhotheni of being responsible for the death of her child, Monde Junior, who passed away on September 2, 2024. Maweni’s accusation has added fuel to an already fiery feud, which has been playing out online for months.
The Origins of the Feud
The animosity between the two traditional healers has been brewing for some time, with their disagreements spilling over onto social media. Most recently, Maweni and her friend Dominic, along with others, went live online to confront Skhotheni.
The spat began when Skhotheni commented on Dominic’s stance against homophobia. Dominic had been addressing homophobic remarks made by a TikTok user, @Nobangela, who ended her video by promoting a brand. Dominic’s criticism of the user sparked Skhotheni’s response, accusing Dominic of trying to get homophobic individuals fired.
Maweni’s Shocking Allegation
In her live video, Gogo Maweni accused Skhotheni of abusive behavior, claiming it was the reason for her child’s death. Monde Junior, Skhotheni’s child, tragically passed away due to a medical condition in which he was born without the tube that transports food to the stomach.
“That is why umntwana wakho (your child) is dead. It’s because wena uhlumukeza abanye abantwana (you abuse other children),” Maweni alleged during the live broadcast.
Maweni also criticized Skhotheni for failing to help her own child, contrasting it with her efforts to ensure her own son, who has epilepsy, is alive and well.

Accusations and Counter-Accusations
The online drama took another turn when Maweni and her friends alleged that Skhotheni’s husband, Monde, had been propositioned to sleep with Dominic. Skhotheni vehemently denied the accusation, calling it a fabrication.
In retaliation, Skhotheni made a bold claim against Maweni’s husband, Sabelo. She alleged that she had seen Sabelo kissing a gay man, who she claimed is Maweni’s best friend, at Constitutional Hill.
“Your husband must tell you that I saw him with your best friend at Constitutional Hill. Don’t test me,” Skhotheni said during the exchange.
She went on to suggest that Maweni’s husband is bisexual, even daring him to take her to court if he denied the claim.
Material Wealth and Public Image
Beyond the personal attacks, the feud has also touched on the two sangomas’ public personas and claims about their wealth.
Skhotheni accused Maweni of wearing counterfeit Gucci items and questioned the authenticity of her luxury cars. Maweni countered by challenging Skhotheni’s claim of owning a nightclub, implying that it was not truly hers.
Public Reaction and the Toll of Feud
The feud has captured public attention, with fans and followers of both sangomas taking sides in the escalating drama. The personal nature of the accusations and the involvement of their families have drawn both criticism and sympathy from their audiences.
Many have called for the two healers to resolve their issues privately, citing concerns over the impact of their feud on their families and professional reputations.
A Call for Resolution
While the feud between Gogo Maweni and Gogo Skhotheni shows no signs of abating, the deeply personal nature of the accusations has left many wondering if the relationship between the two will ever recover.
As public figures and respected sangomas, the expectation is for them to rise above their differences and set an example of conflict resolution. Whether they can do so remains to be seen, but for now, the drama continues to unfold on social media, drawing both fascination and concern from their followers.
