Musa Mseleku’s fifth wife, Samke Khwela, took things too far after he reprimanded her for her subliminal attacks targeting other wives on her official Instagram account. Samke appeared as the long-awaited fifth wife during Season 8 of the popular reality TV show Uthando Nes’thembu.
The cameras might have stopped rolling after Uthando Nes’thembu Season 9 wrapped up with two special episodes, but the drama has not stopped unfolding in the Mseleku household. After Musa Mseleku allegedly told Samke Khwela to stop taking shots at his other wives, she took action that left social media users debating.

SA reacts after Samke Khwela deactivated her Instagram account
The original X post gained traction and sparked mixed reactions. While some defended Samke Khwela and claimed that she had not offended anyone, others reminded Samke’s fans how she had thrown shade at Musa Mseleku’s third wife, Thobile Khumalo. Several netizens speculated why Samke had deactivated her account.
Here are some of the comments:
@Barbiechrons said:
“She didn’t post anything to do with the other wives; all she ever shared was herself and her child. Whatever else she posted, people decided to be abo Cinderella and the shoe fit.”
@inikoriinyang remarked:
“These wives are really out here fighting battles on social media while the show is still airing the drama. Number 5 era hitting different.”
@baby_gheli speculated:
“I think MaCele encouraged her to do it, if you remember, in one of the episodes, she mentioned how she has no social media because she doesn’t have time to entertain nonsense comments.”
@marothiselaelo criticised:
“I don’t know, hey. There’s something about a 50-something-year-old man negotiating social media use with his wife, who’s in her 20s, that’s off. That's just me, though. ‘Cause how are you so old and navigating childish squabbles in your relationship?”
