South African sangoma Gogo Maweni loves shocking her followers and is seemingly always doing something that raises their eyebrows. This must be why many believe that her powers are strong enough to help soccer teams win games. In fact, many believe that the celebrity sangoma is behind the wins of local team Orlando Pirates.

 

This weekend, the team beat Mamelodi Sundowns and managed to retain their second consecutive MTN8 title. As a result, many brought Maweni into the matter, thanking her for the win.Orlando Pirates fans were left feeling over the moon this weekend after their team Orlando Pirates managed to hold onto their second consecutive MTN8 title.

The team beat Mamelodi Sundowns during their match on Saturday 7 October which took place at Durban’s Moses Mabhida Stadium.

Gogo Maweni – a South African sangoma with a flair for ruffling feathers – somehow found herself being thanked for this win by soccer fans who believe that she has had a hand in the team’s luck.Taking to X (formerly Twitter), one mischievous Orlando Pirates fan, Chris Excel, credited the sangoma for helping the team to “cruise nicely” through all of their matches.

“Ever since Gogo Maweni came into our lives … we’ve been cruising Nicely,” he wrote.The post went near viral as many discussed Orlando Pirates and their win. A number of them appear to believe that she actually has something to do with it.

This comes as no surprise since she was once accused of bewitching the father of her child, troubled actor SK Khoza.

While she denied doing anything of the sort, she certainly didn’t convince anyone after sharing a clip of herself caressing a rather large snake.

Take a look at some of their comments:

“Kaizer Chiefs must just swallow their pride and consult Gogo..”one person said while another added:

“She’s the reason Shalulile missed that clear header”.
