Polygamist and businessman Musa Mseleku and his family were first introduced to Mzansi’s big screens in 2017 on a Mzansi Magic reality show titled Uthando Nesithembu. The reality show showed the whole country how the Mselekus navigated life as a family with four wives married to one man.
New of its kind in Mzansi’s media scenes, Uthando Nesithembu kept television viewers glued to their screens, airing for six seasons to date.
Mzansi immediately fell in love with the Musa Mseleku’s wives namely, MaCele, MaYeni, MaKhumalo and MaNgwabe, with some picking favourites among the ladies.
Collectively, the wives have 10 kids, a number Musa wished could be doubled. In one of the seasons, MaCele, MaYeni and MaNgwabe expressed that they were not interested to add more kids, fuelling a need for the polygamist to request they allow him to take a fifth wife.
Let us look at the four wives and their offspring:
MaCele (wife number one)
At the beginning of the reality show, the Mselekus worked together in the family businesses, except for the last wife MaNgwabe, who was a nursing student at the time, something others wished could have been different as they were all working hard to make money for the family.
Even though it is currently unclear if MaCele is still fully operational at the family business, she has ventured into a talk show, hosting Igumbi Lamakhosikazi with the rest of the wives. MaCele is also a motivational speaker and a proud mother.
She has three kids from her marriage, Lwandle, Abongwe, and Owami. She, however, has raised her husband’s first child Snenhlanhla, later taking in her first child as well.
MaYeni (wife number two)
Musa had shared in a few episodes that he first dated MaYeni and wanted to marry her but her family refused for her to marry into polygamy, later agreeing and marrying after MaCele. She was, however, the first to have a child with Musa, but culturally he cannot take the position of a first born as he was born before they got married.
