Rumor has it that renowned traditional healer and DJ, Tumi Motsoeneng, popularly known as Gogo Skhotheni, is blaming her sangoma rival, Gogo Maweni, for allegedly bewitching her child to death. The two healers have a history of animosity, having once been embroiled in a public feud where they exchanged harsh words.
Gogo Skhotheni is mourning the heartbreaking loss of her three-year-old son, Monde Junior Shange, who passed away on Monday, September 2nd, 2024, at Busamed Modderfontein Private Hospital. The young boy had been battling health issues since birth, including being born without a food pipe, which required him to undergo multiple surgeries and spend much of his life in the hospital.
Despite these challenges, Gogo Skhotheni often spoke of her son’s strength and resilience. Earlier this year, she even got a tattoo in his honor, sharing with TshisaLIVE that it was a way for her to feel more connected to him and to show her love in a difficult situation. She fondly recalled how his smile would uplift her, even as he lay in a hospital bed.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Gogo Skhotheni shared the devastating news with her followers, asking for privacy as her family navigates this painful loss. The statement read, “It is with profound sadness that the Motsoeneng and Shange families confirm the passing of Monde Jr Shange.

We ask for your understanding and compassion in giving them the space they need during this difficult time of grieving.”
The post was met with an outpouring of condolences from her followers, with many expressing their deep sorrow and offering their support to the grieving family. One user poignantly commented, “As a parent, this sunk my heart cause I don’t know where I’d start my sincerest condolences to the parents and family of this beautiful handsome boy.” Another added, “He fought man, what a soldier.”
As the grieving process unfolds, rumors of bewitchment have added a layer of controversy to the tragedy. Gogo Skhotheni’s alleged suspicions toward Gogo Maweni have ignited conversations in the traditional healer community and among their followers, with many wondering if this feud could have played a role in the tragic loss. Whether or not these claims hold any truth, the loss of Monde Junior is a profound tragedy for Gogo Skhotheni and her family, and the heartfelt messages from her followers reflect the impact this little boy had on all who knew him or followed his story.
