Gogo Skhotheni and Gogo Maweni, both prominent sangomas and reality TV stars, had previously ended a public social media feud after agreeing they were both wrong to air their conflict. However, Maweni’s recent legal troubles have reignited the spotlight on their relationship. Reports allege that Maweni is facing charges of assault, along with rumors of five pending murder cases.

Skhotheni’s social media post—featuring a chess “checkmate” move—left fans interpreting it as a jab at Maweni’s situation. In chess, a checkmate signifies an immediate end to the game, symbolizing the winner’s ultimate triumph.

### Public Reaction

The news of Maweni’s alleged arrest has garnered significant attention online, with South Africans sharing mixed reactions. While some speculate about the allegations, others reflect on Maweni’s past controversies and personal life.

– **@Am_Blujay** commented, “Whatever Gogo Maweni is being accused of, she did that sh*t.”
– **@Nothando_Ro** wrote, “The fact that she is still with her husband is shocking. That means her charms are holding him tightly.”
– **@PilaneKele** added, “5 murder charges is diabolical!”

– **@Tems_Eland** suggested, “Bail must be denied. She thinks she is untouchable.”

Despite the criticism, some defended Maweni, urging the public to reserve judgment until a court ruling.

### Maweni’s Social Media Activity

Amid the controversy, Gogo Maweni posted a cryptic video on Instagram, showing a woman preparing a spell on a casket. Many viewers speculated that the casket was linked to Gogo Skhotheni’s late son, further intensifying the tension between the two.

Maweni also shared a message of gratitude on her social media, writing, “Lord I am grateful for life and the shower of blessings. Prayer changes things.” However, the positive tone of her post did little to quell public scrutiny.

### Ongoing Speculation

The public feud between Skhotheni and Maweni has captivated South Africans, with social media users debating their actions and the broader implications of their public lives as traditional healers. As more details emerge about Maweni’s legal situation, many await further developments in this dramatic saga.

While the accusations against Gogo Maweni remain unproven, the court of public opinion is already delivering its verdict. In the meantime, Gogo Skhotheni’s “checkmate” post continues to fuel speculation about the status of their rocky relationship.
