Mbuso Khoza criticizes modern lobola as a 'Scam' that distorts tradition
Heritage enthusiast and singer Mbuso Khoza has criticized the modern practice of lobola, describing it as a "scam" that deviates from its original cultural intent.
In a recent interview, Khoza argued that the transactional nature of contemporary lobola focuses more on financial aspects than on uniting families, which was its traditional purpose.
Khoza contends that the current form of lobola was influenced by Sir Theophilus Shepstone, a British colonial administrator, who allegedly distorted the practice to deplete the cattle herds of Zulu men.
He emphasizes that placing a monetary value on a human being contradicts the essence of marriage, which should be about shaping society and fostering family bonds.
Khoza advocate for a return to the traditional values of ilobolo, focusing on its role in uniting families and communities rather than its current transactional nature.
