The saga continues, Thando’s mother is willing to allegedly do anything for her daughter’s safety. On the previous episode, Thando’s mother found out that her daughter’s phone is with her son-in-law. Siyacela was not at home when his mother-in-law paid
Dlamuka a visit, when Thando’s mother asked about Siyacela’s whereabouts, Dlamuka allegedly said he is around.
“If Siyacela can go whenever he wants to go without his wife, does that mean Thando can get some fresh air whenever she wants to?” Thando’s mother asked Dlamuka. “My cows should also have some fresh air” Dlamuka replied, clearly Dlamuka is adamant that Thando is not going anywhere.
Thando’s mother is not only worried about her daughter’s well-being, she is also worried that Siyacela might get married despite the fact that Thando does not approve the polygamy. She feels like Siyacela is allegedly mistreating her daughter, while Dlamuka feels like Siyacela is acting the way he is acting because of the money he has.
Dlamuka believe that Siyacela will come back to his senses, he will not get married to Zintle. Dlamuka is still on the “cow case”, he apparently wants his cows back if Thando wants to leave Siyacela. Thando’s mother does not understand why is it an issue that Thando might leave Siyacela.
Thando and her mother will allegedly not return the cows and lobola money because Thando got into the marriage as a virgin. Thando knows that Siyacela can not return her virginity, hence she said Dlamuka will not get any cows back. Although Siyacela and Thando’s father are allegedly not on good terms, there is an article where you can see clearly that Siyacela and Thando’s father are smiling next to each other. Do you think those smiles are genuine?
Siyacela’s Grandmother from Umlazi warned us about how dark and cruel Dlamuka really was this episode just exposed him I’m afraid. I love how Thando’s mother is standing up for her daughter … face to face with Dlamuka !!! Love this for her.
Dlamuka to Thando’s mum: “If Thando leaves this marriage, you must bring back the lobola cows…”
Thando: “What cows? If we must take back the cows then Siyacela must bring back my virginity. If he can’t, then they are getting no cows back.”
“Thando must be a doormat? That’s old school, we’re in modern times, that can’t happen…you spoiled Siyacela too much. You ruined him…Siyacela doesn’t respect other people, he doesn’t even respect you.” – Thando’s mum
Thando’s mother is telling Dlamuka what everyone has been meaning to tell him, but they were scared. I even saw his wife seating next to him laughing too. I’ll be happy once Thando actually leaves. Right now she can still be softened up with a teddy bear and a 1984 plastic roses.
This old man is such a hypocrite, Siyacela can go for days without anyone knowing his whereabouts but Thando can’t take a break?Virginity testing is actually inhumane. Why are women subjected to such? That’s it. Siyacela takes the disrespect from his father. So they actually showed the sheets with blood stains on national television? How did I miss that episode?
Marriage is showing women in their 50s flames. Imagine being 17/18 & dealing with these kinds of issues. At the age of 18 you are stressed and losing weight ngenxa yomendo nendoda. This child was robbed of her childhood by adults around her that allowed this marriage to happen in the first place. They could have saved her. She wanted to get married, social worker came & advice her but she insisted that she’s gonna marry her Syacela…. Her mom was against this so called marriage…. Intombi yayingasezwa lutho nje izibona ingu Mrs.
Gog’Shezi warned us against ubab Dlamuka. She told us that eventually we will see him for who and what he is.
