'Skeem Saam' and 'Ehostela' actor Mlungisi Mathe becomes Sangoma
Mathe has joined a list of Mzansi stars who have accepted their calling to become a sangoma (traditional healer or "witch doctor").
The actor announced that he has already taken to practising as a sangoma. Briefly News previously reported that Mathe opted to take his time to accept the calling because he had no idea of its inner workings.
In an interview with Daily Sun earlier this year, Mlungisi, who also plays Themba in eHostela, opened up about his gift of divination and healing people. He said:
"The gift of healing people is hard because you lose yourself. Amadlozi (the ancestors) are using and getting their chance of life through you. I found out I had Amadlozi before I was even 15."
