Thabiso Mokhethi has raised eyebrows with his recent podcast interview on StreetTalk With Nomstar.

Thabiso Mokhethi gives insight into ancestors

The actor shared unconventional views on ancestors, portraying them as familiar and monitoring spirits.

"Those are not our ancestors queen. Those are familiar spirits, who have familiarised themselves with our lives
They know who you are, they know what you want and they know what you need because the devil has monitors. They are also called monitoring spirits, and those are the same spirits that when you move away from God like me, they are able to manifest in sickness, accidents and differing things."

Modus operandi of ancestors

Thabiso elaborated on how ancestors' agents target people who are in distress in the Part 1 interview.

"And because you are in so much pain, and you want to heal it now, then they send agents, physical people to say hey my man you need to go there. The moment you go there means you are out of the presence of God, because darkness and light do not dwell in one place."

A clip posted on X/Twitter by @MDNnewss from the in-depth conversation has prompted diverse reactions from Mzansi people.

Twitter users stunned by Thabiso's remarks

While some commended Mokhethi for his thought-provoking arguments, others linked his perspective on life's disappointments and recent financial struggles.

@TawanaM14 said:

"Depression finished dai boy. Nou onale loadshedding nyana."

@prow_II commented:

"We’re not ready for this chat."

@NneteKeNnete tweeted:

"He made sense on some points but misled the audience on other points. Some people are misled by Gobelas stating they need to Thwasa but some people are genuinely gifted to be a sangoma."
