Moja Love reality show Dloz’lami host Thembi Nyathi has won a lawsuit against sangoma Thabo Makhepula. Makhepula, known as Babamkhulu has been ordered by the South Gauteng High Court to stop spreading false information about Nyathi on social media.

Nyathi is famous for helping people communicate with their ancestors on her popular reality show. Her work on the show has been praised by many, as she offers a unique and valuable service to those who seek it with her ability to connect people with their loved once who have since passed. Makhepula had been making videos and swearing at Nyathi defaming her character and questioning her reputation. However, justice prevailed in court when Makhepula was ordered to issue a public apology, pay Nyathi’s legal fees and retract all defamatory statements. Nyathi said, “Going through the legal process was challenging, but the verdict of the lawsuit demonstrates that justice has been served. This serves as a lesson to everyone that you cannot defame people and think you will get away with it. People should be mindful of the impact their words can have on others. Many are on depression medication because of relentless people,” she said.

 

ORDERED TO STOP SPREADING LIES

Judge AJ Carrim was not too kind to Makhepula when delivering the judgment on 5 September. “The respondent (Makhepula) hereby, with immediate effect, is directed and ordered to refrain from publishing false, defamatory and unlawful statements about the applicant (Nyathi) on his Facebook page, social media and on any media platforms. That the respondent (Makhepula) is ordered to publish an unconditional public retraction and apology for the false and defamatory allegations that he made about the applicant (Nyathi) on his Facebook page,” the court ruled. The matter will be heard again on October 24 at the same court where Makhepula will show cause as to why an order should not be made final.

Final preparations were underway on early Saturday morning at KwaPhindangene in Ulundi, KwaZulu Natal as family and friends trickled into the home of Prince Mangosuthu.The man, who founded the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) in the 70s and led the party for over four decades, has been hailed by some as a towering figure and an important role player in South Africa’s politics while some have described him as a complex and decisive figure while he has also been blamed for the black-on-black political violence that occurred in the townships in the late 90s.

 

The IFP’s current leadership has, however, vowed to keep Mangosuthu’s legacy and his positive contribution towards the road to democracy.

When he stepped down in 2019, he was appointed as President Emeritus of the IFP.

But Buthelezi’s life was not only centred around politics.He not only served as the Zulu traditional Prime Minister but also as MisuZulu’s mentor, guiding him and at times speaking up against his detractors and those who sought to dethrone him from office.While the King will not attend Buthelezi’s funeral today for cultural reasons, speaking at the annual reed dance last week, he said it would be “be hard for him to sleep or rest in the coming days as he and Buthelezi worked together for the longest time until the end, having respected him.”

Buthelezi passed away on September 9 aged 95 a few days after he was discharged from hospital.

He had been admitted for over a month and had undergone a medical procedure.

Meanwhile, President Cyril Ramaphosa is expected to deliver the eulogy while scores of IFP supporters are expected to descend at the Ulundi regional Stadium for the category 1 special official funeral which will come with military honours.

“Another unforgettable trip around the sun with you. I thank the Lord every day for allowing me to experience this moment with you. For every smile, kiss, and cuddle shared is truly cherished,” he wrote.

“You drive me crazy, but you truly are in a league of your own, a true queen quite like nothing I’ve ever experienced. I pray on this day and every day that follows that the Lord’s grace shines down upon you. I love you and thank you for being an amazing mother to the greatest gift I could ever ask for. Today we celebrate you.”

Joyce Skefu says she’s getting stronger by the day while on her road to recovery after suffering a mild stroke.

The veteran actress, popularly known for her role as Maletsatsi on Scandal!, took to her timeline to share an update after revealing the news in March 2022.

“Hello loves, I miss you, miss work, miss the period before Covid-19. This shows that life has many surprises as we journey to eternity. Can you believe that as our spirit matures so is the world. Thank you for your consistent support, my health is improving daily. Love wins,” she wrote.

Lira is another celebrity who suffered a stroke, more than a year ago, and has also been candid with fans about her recovery journey.

In a statement shared with TshisaLIVE, Lira’s family revealed the singer had travelled to Germany for a performance but suffered a stroke in April 2022 that affected her ability to communicate.

Marking on her Instagram timeline a year since the incident, the singer reflected on how she had to learn the basics of communication again and expressed her gratitude for another chance at life.

“I had aphasia. I couldn’t speak or write or read. And I must say that I am lucky. Many people don’t come away with that. I had to learn speaking as a child, learning how to say each letter, and forming a sentence. I did so joyfully though. I had no anxiety, no stress, just peace and calm. I have made such huge progress and I gave a speech at my birthday party. I’m almost there.

 

“Thank you to all of you who kept me in your prayers and kept me in your good thoughts. You let your light shine for me. In the year that I’ve needed to learn how to speak I’ve enjoyed listening and the silence. I’ve learnt to be happier. I’ve learnt to enjoy the simple things. Life is a gift and I hope to celebrate the gift of life for many years.”

“A constant reminder of the incredible human I married. Right there by my side every day, when I was in hospital. Regardless of all the 1000002 things he had to. I can’t begin to explain what it was like not being able to see my babies, but seeing his face kept me going😍. With a constant smile, a joke here and there, videos of the kids, and constantly reminding me that everything will be okay❤️🥺. You are not only the love of my life but my peace too. I wish I could whisk you away on a special vacay so you can breathe easy. Lie on a hammock and just relax🥰. You deserve that peace of mind.”
