In the clip, villagers and cattle seem stunned by the old lady’s tricks with the domestic tool. The Gogo comfortably rested on the broom with her head lying on her folded arms, while chewing gum.
Her shadow appeared on the ground as the broom moved around. This made people unsure about the legitimacy of the footage. People online speculated that the woman was from Limpopo.
Why is Limpopo named the witchcraft capital of SA?
The idea of Limpopo being labelled as the witchcraft capital of South Africa is not necessarily true, but is rather a social and cultural stereotype that has formed over the years:
Deep traditional and spiritual roots
The rural areas of Limpopo, like Venda and parts of Sekhukhune, are home to strong ancestral belief systems and traditional healing practices. People in those areas normally consult sangomas, prophets, and herbalists, which could unimpress those who are not familiar with the practices.
Folklore and oral traditions
The province of Limpopo is rich in mythology, legends, and spiritual stories. There is a collection of original tales about shapeshifting, tokoloshes, and spirits that have been passed down from generations.
These stories often get sensationalised in the media or urban conventions and reinforce Limpopo as mystical or spiritually intense.

@Turpin matroos made a comparison:
“When Superman flies, we call him a hero, but if our grandparents fly, she's a witch. We have to support our local talent.”
@Poloko pointed out:
“The cow is traumatised.”
@Shalisi highlighted:
“I wish to use it for travelling, not witchcraft; taxis are so expensive these days.”
@REV. ISRAEL👑 commented:
“Very possible. Witchcraft is not a problem as long as you do it for your own benefit.”
@monareng264 shared:
“If this mode of transport is legalised, garages and Filling Stations will close everywhere.”
@user5043437851581 warned:
“Only in Limpopo; don't try this in other provinces.”
