Celebrity aesthetic doctor Nandipha Magudumana’s brother, Nkosinathi Sekeleni, who exposed her relationship with the convicted rapist and murderer Thabo Bester, has apparently gone into hiding. But he is active on Twitter, busy threatening to sue everyone who claims the woman who was seen sobbing during Dr Nandipha’s court appearance is their mother.

Nkosinathi Sekeleni threatened to sue a News24 Journalist who had reported that Dr Nandipha’s mother was crying in court. “I will sue the s*it out of you. Stop trying to trend from spreading false Information. I am Nandipha’s brother. The person you are saying is my mother is a person that I love dearly and is not my mother. My mother is very sick and was in her bed when my father/sister in court”, Nkosinathi Sekeleni said.

However, a search I conducted on his Instagram account paints a different story. On the 22nd of July 2020, Nkosinathi Sekeleni posted a picture of a woman who looks exactly like the woman who was seen crying in court. The caption of his post read: ” Happy birthday mama”. If you look closely to the picture of the woman in court and the one on his Instagram post, the resemblance is striking. Is Nkosinathi lying about the woman who was in court? Could she be their mother? Help me solve the puzzle around the mysterious woman.

Nkosinathi Sekeleni also told TimesLIVE on Wednesday that his mother was ill and did not attend the court case on Monday in which his sister and father are accused of helping convicted rapist and murderer Thabo Bester to escape from the Mangaung Correctional Centre. “It’s upsetting to see people saying that my mother was in court. My mother is at home, she can’t travel long distances. The woman people are referring to is a relative of ours and not my mother,” said Sekeleni. Read more

What I have noticed is that Dr Nandipha’s family is trying their best to keep her mother out of the public eye. If that woman who was crying in court is not their mother, who is she? How come she looks exactly like their mother as posted by Nkosinathi Sekeleni on Instagram?
