AN ANGRY group of people almost burnt a woman to death on Monday night.
They accused her of being a fake sangoma who ruined marriages.
It happened in KwaNobuhle, Uitenhage. Among the crowd were NoAmen Sizila (45) and Nokwanele Ndletyana (50).They shouted: “She must voetsek from our kasi! We don’t want horny sangomas here!”
Nokwanele said she first met the sangoma in 2013 after being introduced to her by her gogo.
“She said she needed a place to live and I felt sorry for her because she had a small child. I let her have an outside room, but she soon started flirting with my husband,” she said.
“She told people I had sex with men in a toilet at my sister’s house in 2015, leading to fights with my husband. I ended up kicking her out of the house.”
NoAmen said she also rented a shack to the woman, who soon started causing trouble. “She told me a tokoloshe wanted to poke me, and my husband would leave me.”
When Daily kasi news tried to talk to the sangoma, she ran away.
Captain Gerda Swart said: “People should be careful of fake sangomas. We also appeal to the residents not to take the law into their own hands.”
