Ngizwe Mchunu wives

Ngizwe Mchunu Wedding

The DJ is currently married to his third wife, Florida Mthimkhumulu, and even paid the bridewealth or lobola in October 2014. However, their wedding met several challenges when the first two wives prosecuted him to the Durban High Court to nullify the civil marriage and to stop them from getting married traditionally. Sphelele and Lindi complained that the DJ paid Florida’s lobola while still traditionally married to the first two wives.

The court ruled in favour of the first two wives and nullified the marriage. Nonetheless, the DJ and Florida tied knots in 2016 in the absence of the first two wives who said they did not know about the wedding. Florida believes that the issues with her matrimony only happened because she had rejected her calling of being a sangoma. So she went to Empangeni and trained to become one.

Ngizwe Mchunu career

The renowned DJ was famous for hosting the Ukhozi FM live and the Sigiya Ngengoma program. He, however, fell into the hot soup after reportedly violating his contract terms by sharing confidential information about the radio station, among other accusations.

The previous year, he had also been accused of infringement of the station’s rules when he declared to the public that Ukhonzi FM would air live at Mroza Fakude’s victory party before it had even been sanctioned. Mroza was celebrating his song, Van Dame after it won the Summer Song of the Year Award on SABC. He tried going to the courts to get the station to hire him back but failed.
