@Nombuso Ndlovu pointed out:

“Please understand that old people don’t practice witchcraft but suffer from dementia. She is not even aware that she has walked out of the gate. Yho, this is sad for us who have mothers suffering from dementia.”

@PoppyOctavia Sonyane🇿🇦 asked:

“Why didn’t you just switch on the outside lights and expose her?”

@Gabaiphiwe Malatsi said:

“What if she was praying for her yard? We usually pray at midnight and 3 am, it doesn’t always have to be witchcraft.”

@Sindi shared:

“My problem is I would go outside and confront her.”

@Stheza Deep suggested:

“Believe me sisi, you will never see witchcraft even if it was staring you in the face. Ugogo is old and lost her memory, she doesn't even know where she is. You should probably help her get home instead.”

@kgosisupremacy commented:

“If she sees you? It’s over.”
