Idols South Africa made headlines when they announced that Thembi Seete would be serving as one of the new judges for season 18. The stunning actress and singer rose to fame at a young age and has maintained her prominence in the entertainment industry ever since.

The musician, who was born in Soweto, was a member of the well-known girl band Boom Shaka from 1993 until the group broke up in the year 2000. Boom Shaka was a band that played kwaito, and they were very successful. As a result, it should not come as a surprise that a great number of people in South Africa were dismayed when the band broke up.

IdolsSA judge Thembi Seete has quite a reputation
Soon after the band broke up, Thembi Seete embarked on a solo career and began appearing in films.

After it was revealed how much of an age gap there was between Collen Mashawana and Thembi Seete, the two became quite popular. Mzansi was preparing to celebrate Collen Mashawana’s birthday in September, as is customary, when the revelation came to light. Collen’s birthday falls in that month. The fact that Thembi Seete is older than the man who is going to be her baby daddy, Collen Mashawana, demonstrates that age is nothing more than a number when it comes to love.

Collen started an investment firm that is now known as Afribiz Invest Pty and serves as the company’s executive chairman. Collen Mashawana is rumored to be one of the wealthiest men in Limpopo. He is also well-known for his generosity in addition to his wealth. According to the reports, he has started a number of community projects in both Limpopo and Gauteng.

It is not clear whether or not the two are still together; however, some unconfirmed reports claim that although Thembi and Collen have gone their separate ways, they are co-parenting their son together. This information cannot be confirmed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IdolsSA struggles to get viewership

Shortly after Thembi Seete’s engagement to her now-ex-fiancé ended, she and Collen began seeing each other romantically. They confirmed to the world that they were dating when they were seen together at Lebo Gunguluza’s wedding in Mauritius. Prior to this, there had been a lot of speculation about whether or not the two were an item.

Collen Mashawana, who is now a successful entrepreneur and philanthropreneur, was born on September 6th, 1981. In the year 2022, he will have reached the age of 41. On the other hand, Thembi Seete was born on March 25th, 1977, which means that she will turn 45 years old in 2022. Collen appears to be much older than Thembi, despite the fact that they have a 4-year age gap between them. However, no one would ever guess that from looking at them.

Because she was afraid it would be detrimental to her career, the Gomora actress preferred that the public not be aware of the romantic connections she maintained. The wedding of Lebo Gunguluza took place in 2018, and photographs of the couple attending were published online by journalists. Their relationship was brought into the public eye, and there were rumors going around that the two of them had become engaged and were living together at Mashawana’s house.

In the same year, Thembi Seete announced that she was expecting a child and displayed her growing baby bump for the world to see. Even though she posted a picture of herself while pregnant, she remained mum about the identity of the father of her unborn child. Mzansi speculated that Mashawana was the father of her child, but neither Mashawana nor Thembi came forward to confirm the rumor.

Dakalo is the name of Thembi Seete’s son, who was born in April 2018, when Thembi was 40 years old. Dakalo was the first child for Thembi Seete. On April 11, 2022, Thembi’s son celebrated his fourth birthday, and Thembi took to social media to share her joy over her son reaching this milestone age.

Because it appears that Thembi Seete is very interested in keeping her son away from social media, it is uncommon to find photographs of her child posted anywhere on the internet. The former member of Boom Shaka.

Collen was previously married to the Legacy actress Lerato Moloi, with whom he shares another son named Prince Mashawana, who was born in 2012. Prior to beginning his relationship with Thembi, Collen dated Lerato Moloi.

Thembi Seete is not married at the present time, and it is highly likely that she is a single mother.

Thembi was previously in a committed relationship with the well-known musician Bobo “Bo” Seritsane before she began dating Collen Mashawana.

According to the rumors, the couple had been together since 2006 and announced their engagement in 2012. Sadly, they never tied the knot and ended their relationship in 2017, after having been together for approximately ten years prior.

When their relationship was at its peak, many people thought of them as the ideal couple. In the year 212, Seritsane made her an engagement proposal, and he was prepared to finalize their relationship by getting married right away.

Thembi Seete preferred to take things slowly and forge a deeper connection with the person who would be her life partner rather than getting married soon after becoming engaged. She did not want to get married right away after becoming engaged.

After being engaged for four years, the couple decided to end their relationship. The Gomora actress did not disclose the breakup until well over a year later, while she was working on the set of Massive Metro. At the same time, she disclosed that she had recently begun a romantic partnership with another person, a partnership that, according to her, possessed a greater potential for achievement and stability.

A terrorist who had kidnapped three children was found pushing a dumpster that contained the dead bodies of the children.

At the time of her rescue, the child had recently turned four years old. At the time, she had been playing in the park with a boy of a comparable age and social circle.

It was claimed that the perpetrator was taken into custody this morning in Boksburg North after authorities immediately responded to a call for assistance from a worried resident.

The image of the offender calmly strolling alongside Bokgabo was captured on CCTV tape, and the picture rapidly became extremely popular on the internet.

Colonel Mavela Masondo of the police force has disclosed that the adult male is currently being questioned in connection with the disappearance of the child, who is now 4 years old.

 

It has not been established, as of this point in time, whether or not the body that was discovered was that of the daughter, who would have been 4 years old at the time. However, the parents of the missing Bokgabo have had DNA testing done, and they are currently awaiting the results so that they can determine whether or not the mangled body and body parts found were truly those of their daughter. This will allow them to determine whether or not they should continue their search for their daughter.

It was hoped that by physically restraining the suspect, he would be able to collect his thoughts and explain to the authorities why he had been hanging around with youngsters and kidnapping them.

A suspect in the kidnapping of Bokgabo Poo, who was reported missing earlier this week after being spotted in Wattville, has been apprehended by the Gauteng police. The garbage can he was pulling behind him contained the skeletal remains of three more persons who should have been kept very far away from civilized areas.

Sad News for Jub Jub as the show cancelled
He has been taken off the air not once, but twice in the past. It would appear that he is in danger of losing his job once more. When exactly will he be leaving his reality show? After being criticized once more for promoting aggressive behavior on his show, Uyajola 9/9, the contentious host has risen to the top of the trending topics. There is no question that he knows how to plug and bling it up when presenting, but Mzansi believes that he took things a step too far this time.

 

 

 

 

Sad News for Jub Jub as the show cancelled
This past Sunday, he was canceled for violating an unclothed man, and it happened in the midst of everything else. After he did something that no one could have anticipated, viewers of the show have since called for his dismissal.

The grapevine has it that a number of human rights organizations have already given this issue some thought before it was brought up. A few days ago, he received a lot of criticism for being the one who started the fight on the show. On the other hand, in spite of all of those courageous red flags, he chose to blue-tick Mzansi.

According to reports, Jub Jub did not show up for the second time on Uyajola 9/9 after assaulting a man who was not wearing any clothing.

In the video clip, the TV personality is seen pulling the blanket off of the person who is accused of cheating while they were asleep. It has been reported, but these claims have not been verified, that the showrunners have severed their ties with Jub Jub and are merely waiting to issue an official statement. If the rumor turns out to be true, it will be the second time that the series has written him out of the story.

After an accusation of rape was made against him by his ex-girlfriend Amanda Du-Pont a few months ago, he was informed that his appearance on the show would be canceled. In order for him to get his presenting gig back, he was required to issue a public apology. Will he be able to evade capture this time? Let’s take a look at some of the comments that poured into social media in the wake of his internet sensationalization.

“Jub Jub is worn out at this point…

In my opinion, he should leave this show #Uyajola99 sooner rather than later… It’s been a long time since he’s been infringing on people’s rights, but we’ve been too preoccupied with watching the dramatic scenes on the show to notice until now. haha.

“It makes me sick to my stomach that the vast majority of black people are in favor of invading other people’s privacy…

Disgusting!

. “Even for Jub Jub, that’s too low!”

On Friday, the trial for the murder of Meyiwa continued in the Gauteng High Court in Pretoria. At this point, the second witness for the state, Sergeant Patrick Mlungisi Mthethwa, was subjected to cross-examination. Mthethwa and his colleague, Sergeant Mathebula, were the first police officers to arrive at the scene where Meyiwa had been shot on October 26, 2014. This incident occurred on that same day. Meyiwa was shot and killed at the residence he shared with his girlfriend, Kelly Khumalo.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fresh details emerge on Senzo Meyiwa’s murder trial
Mthethwa was questioned by Advocate Zandile Mshololo, who represents one of the five accused individuals, regarding whether or not he looked for evidence on the countertop in the kitchen. Mthethwa has testified in the past that when he initially responded to a complaint of a shooting in progress, he entered the house but then left for the hospital because there was no one there who could inform him of what had transpired.

During the speedy tour of the home, he found a crutch and a hat in the kitchen. The crutch was the only one in the house. During the second time he went to the house, he discovered a bullet fragment lying on the floor of the kitchen. Mthethwa stated that he had searched the countertop but was unable to locate anything there endorsed and suggested by the Sherif.

In the meantime, the first witness for the State was Sergeant Thabo Mosia, who was also the first forensic expert to arrive at the scene. Sergeant Mosia testified in the past that he discovered a bullet projectile behind some glass jars that were placed on the countertop.

Fresh details emerge on Senzo Meyiwa’s murder trial

Mosia testified that on his second visit to the scene, he and other investigators traced the trajectory of a bullet that went through the door and found the bullet projectile. Mosia said this happened on his second visit to the scene.As a result of the fact that this projectile was not discovered during his initial visit to the crime scene, the defense began raising questions and making claims that it had been planted there. According to Mosia, the bullet projectile was concealed behind the glass jars, which is why the officer did not find it during his initial search of the crime scene.

Mthethwa testified under cross-examination on Friday that they did not rearrange any of the items in the room while they were searching for evidence. It would appear that this provides support for Mosia’s claim that the bullet projectile could only be seen after the glass jars were removed from the room.

In addition, the state prosecutor and advocate George Baloyi took great pains to ensure that Mthethwa indicated on a photograph taken at the crime scene which section of the countertop he inspected. Mthethwa indicated the location of an area that contained several pots. The photograph of the crime scene that was used to illustrate the pointing out did not include any glass jars.

SECURING OF THE SCENE

Mthethwa gave testimony earlier on Friday, stating that when the police officers arrived at the scene of the crime, they were greeted by a man who introduced himself as Themba. Themba claimed that he was Kelly’s mother Gladness Khumalo’s brother. Kelly’s mother is Khumalo. According to Mthethwa, Themba does not know a great deal about what took place, other than the fact that someone was shot and was subsequently rushed to the hospital.

Mthethwa reported that after a brief investigation of the home they went to the hospital, and it was only there that they determined that the home had been the location of a criminal act. After that, Mthethwa and Mathebula went back to the houses and set up a perimeter around the area. Mshololo brought up the fact that the police officers had left the scene of the crime without first ensuring that it was safe to do so.

Mthethwa argued that at the time, he was unaware that the location was a crime scene because Themba was unable to tell the police whether the shooting took

Is your New Year’s resolution to become a homeowner? You’ve come to the right place. Many people are making plans and taking steps toward the goal of homeownership this year. So, why become a homeowner? Maybe it’s to get your slice of the American Dream. Or, because real estate appreciates and there’s money in that. Or, perhaps, for the tax advantages. Or maybe, you just want a place to call your own. A place you can call home. There’s something beautiful about homeownership and Americans know that. You know that. It’s probably why you made a resolution to become a homeowner this year. So, how do you actually buy that home? SMART goals for buying a house can help. What exactly is a SMART goal? It’s a specific way to make a plan for reaching your target. So long, broken New Year’s resolutions!

 

SMART Goals for Buying a House
Ever try to put furniture together without the instruction manual? Might have worked out. But, it just as likely ended with a backward side panel on your dresser or wobbly joints on your chair. One thing’s for sure, the process took longer than if you would have just followed the manual.

You can think of SMART goals for buying a house like instructions for making your dreams come true. Take a bit of time to map out your plan of action and your likelihood of success will shoot through the roof (probably the roof of your new house).

Here’s how to do it. Plan out each part of the SMART goal acronym and you’re on your way:
S- Specific
M- Measurable
A- Achievable
R- Relevant
T- Time-Based
Specific – What Do You Really Want?
Be specific and detailed about what, exactly, you want in a home. Knowing the particulars will help you plan the rest of your SMART goal. We’re not just talking bed and bath combinations—it’s much more than that. Is there a specific town or neighborhood you want to live in? Do you want some outdoor space? What about a dine-in kitchen? Or a dual vanity in the bathroom? Think critically about your lifestyle, your finances, and how your current place is or isn’t working for you. Then, map out your wants vs. needs.

Specific – I plan to buy a 2-bedroom home with a gated yard (for Buster, of course) and a work commute under 30 minutes.
Not Specific – I plan to buy a house.

Measurable – Get to Know Your Finances
One of the most powerful tools for success? Measurement. If you want to become a better long-distance runner, you’d track your mileage gains over time. The same is true for your SMART goals for buying a house. Measuring your progress is key (to your future front door).

Start by taking stock of your current credit score, existing debts, and savings for a down payment. From there, you can set measurement milestones. Consider picking one area of focus that could be most impactful to your home purchase. Don’t have a down payment accruing? That could be your 2022 focus. Think your student loans might seriously hinder your borrowing power? Commit to increasing your monthly payment (reduce the amount owed) by a set amount. Worried your credit won’t qualify you for a mortgage? Make a detailed plan to pay down your balance.

Measurable – I will save an additional $10,000 for my down payment by scheduling a monthly auto-deposit of $833.33 into my savings account.
Not Specific – I will save for my down payment.

Expert Tip: Not sure which financial factor to focus on? Reach out to a mortgage professional for a free home loan evaluation. They can help guide your goal-setting.
Achievable – What Can You Afford and When?
As far as we’re concerned, the A should come first. But, we guess ASMRT doesn’t roll off the tongue quite as well (try saying it – it isn’t pretty). This essential step exists to ensure you can accomplish your goal. Say you don’t have a down payment saved, but you’ll need at least 3% of the home’s value to qualify for a mortgage. Can you truly swing the monthly savings required to make that happen? Same goes for timing. When you think through all the details, does it really make sense to buy a home in 2022? If even one of your answers is, “no,” the S, M, R, and T don’t matter at all.

Relevant – Homeownership in Context
It’s worth considering your short-term plans and your long-term vision for your life. The “relevance” step of SMART goals for buying a house establishes where homeownership fits in. Is traveling the world a priority in the coming years? Well, wanderlust might push buying a place to the backburner. Committed to starting – or expanding – your family soon? Then, homeownership is about as relevant as it gets.

You don’t want to pull yourself (or your finances) in too many directions. One huge direction is enough, thank you very much.

Time-Based – When Can You Start Shopping?
You’ve been planning to organize your junk drawer for years. Somehow, the task always seems to get tucked under other, more appealing, time commitments. And that new exercise routine… starting it in 2023? Us too.

The problem isn’t that cleaning a drawer or exercising are unreachable goals. It’s just that you probably haven’t established a timeline for either. Time-stamped milestones can have a mansion-sized impact on making your homeownership dream happen.

Expert Tip: Don’t stop at setting your house-purchase date. Define deadlines for each step of your goal. Even better? Add each milestone to your calendar.

Time-driven –

I will narrow down my search area to 5 neighborhoods by March.
I will find a real estate agent and mortgage professional by April.
I will improve my credit score by August.
I will establish my home budget by September.
I will start house hunting by October.
I will own a home by December of 2022.
Less Time-driven – I will buy a house this year.

Making Your SMART Goal Happen
It turns out that SMART goals are more than smart. They identify crucial aspects of goal-setting and scaffold your success. Who’d have thought you’d become the author of your very own instruction manual? It’s time to do this home buying thing.

You can think of SMART goals for buying a house like instructions for making your dreams come true.
