Award-winning singer Simphiwe Dana has expressed her disdain for Mzansi Magic’s reality show, “Mnakwethu”.
Simphiwe joins a number of fans who have complained about the narrative of the show which they feel portrays women as objects for sale by the men on the show.
She claimed the show was blatantly humiliating women and that the show's host, Musa Mseleku, was obsessed with humiliating women. Musa is married to 4 women and he claims he sexually satisfies all of them, equally the same.
“Is Mnakwethu the African tradition hill y’all are willing to die on? I say y’all because it could never be me. Women being humiliated like this could never have my stamp of approval. I can’t even believe that it’s being flighted. Surely we have rights as women.”

Although she said she was not against polygamy as a “village girl” and understood the culture, she felt that what the show was depicting was greed. “And I’m not against polygamy. I’m a village girl. But this is not f***ing polygamy. It’s greed, pure and simple. Nx,” she tweeted.

“Polygamy is only warranted for two reasons:
1. You are rich and have lots of lands that needs to be overseen.
2. Your wife cannot bear your children. And in both instances, your wife chooses your second wife, in cahoots with her mother-in-law.” – IOL
