PEOPLE TRAPPED INSIDE THE HOUSE BY FLOODS IN MBAULA VILLAGE
Distressing news is reaching us from Mbaula Village, outside Giyani. Due to the recent heavy rains and rising water levels, several community members are currently trapped inside a house and unable to reach safety.
The situation is critical as water levels continue to pose a threat.
Community members in safer areas to remain vigilant and report any other sightings of people in distress.
Last week our sisters changed their profile pictures to purple and call for national shut down against GBV

Ahh man 😢 about 2months ago we were commending her on her impeccable debating skills, clear structured points, and how she nicely handled that NewsNations’ journalist without flinching even though he tried so much to belittle her 🤍 Rest Mbokodo 🕊️ salute 🫡 #TshidiMadia#RIP
It is with gut-wrenching sadness that Primedia Broadcasting regrets to inform its audiences about the passing of Tshidi Madia, EWN’s Associate Editor: Politics. https://t.co/2jOS5LqEr8
@_BNSL The shocking part here is a lot of people think it’s fine to let kids to what they want, safe or not 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ then we get surprised by ma 2k are turning out the way they are.. 🤦🏾♀️
Dear Floyd Shivambu, if you listened to the EFF president Julius Sello Malema 13 years ago you would have learnt 13 years ago what you learnt in 6 months. You didn't learn about politics but about Zuma, MK is not politics - be honest for once!
@_Mmathulo Vuyi should’ve picked up that Happy wasn’t going to carry on with the mean girl energy at the reunion, when she said to Pheladi she must come to the reunion and redeem herself
The last episode was beyond shocking… you can feel helplessness n hopelessness n Thando’s voice, that girl needs serious help #isencanelengane#cancelIsencanelengane
For far too long, South Africans have witnessed the devastating impact of gender-based violence and domestic abuse in their communities. Yet the reality TV show on DSTV’s channel Moja TV Isencane Lengane continues to exploit this reality for entertainment value, turning deeply troubling instances of emotional and verbal abuse into content for profit and clicks. This is not just irresponsible, it is dangerous.
By broadcasting such abuse without adequate intervention and accountability, Moja Love is normalising and trivialising gender-based violence, sending the harmful message that abuse is acceptable if it brings in viewers. In a country where women and children are raped, beaten, and killed every day, this kind of programming is not only tone-deaf, it is a betrayal of every victim and survivor.
Abuse is not entertainment. Trauma is not a storyline.
In 2023, Moja Love was fined R50,000 by the Broadcasting Complaints Commission of South Africa (BCCSA) for airing an episode of Isencane Lengane that depicted domestic violence. While Moja Love was later cleared of inciting violence and hatred, the fine itself speaks volumes about the harm caused. We call on:
- Moja Love must take immediate action to discontinue the TV show "Isencane Lengane" due to its dangerous portrayal of abuse and toxic relationships.
- If Thando wants to leave her abusive marriage, Moja Love and relevant authorities must offer immediate emotional and legal support.
- The Broadcasting Complaints Commission of South Africa (BCCSA) must hold Moja Love accountable for violating ethical standards.
- Viewers and advertisers to stand against the exploitation of abuse and demand higher standards from the media they support.
We remind South Africa that what we choose to watch, support, and allow to continue reflects the kind of society we are building. This is not just about a television show, this is about the systemic failure to protect women in South Africa, on and off screen. #womenforchange #EndGBV #IsencaneLengane

The application was for the return of the minor children to Germany in terms of article 12 of Chapter III of the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction.
It had nothing to do with custody - see article 19 of the Convention: a “decision under this Convention concerning the return of a child shall not be taken to be a determination on the merits of any custody issue”
