Boity Thulo, the powerhouse rapper, has sparked a fascinating conversation in Mzansi about spirituality. During an engaging interview on L-Tido’s podcast, she boldly shared her thoughts on how God and ancestors can live in harmony. This revelation has got everyone talking, and it’s not just a simple yes or no kind of topic.
Boity Thulo's Perspective on God and Ancestors
Boity Thulo is no stranger to bold statements, and this time she’s dived into the spiritual realm. The rapper, who publicly embraced her calling as a sangoma a few years back, emphasized that her spiritual practices haven’t strayed from her faith in God. In a recent post on X by MDN News, Boity, during her appearance on L-Tido’s podcast, urged people to understand the possibility of coexistence between God and ancestors.
Boity explained it like this: “There’s God, and then there are ancestors. These are lineage-related practices and traditions that we honor. We don’t worship ancestors; I still pray to God, and I still listen to gospel music. These two worlds can absolutely coexist. It’s not like being a God-fearing person means you can’t honor your ancestral duties. These things can blend seamlessly.”

“There’s God and then there are ancestors, that's lineage stuff and things that we do for that. We don’t pray to ancestors, I still pray to God, I still listen to gospel music. Those worlds can coexist; it's not like you can’t be a God-fearing person and still practice ancestral duties. Those things can coexist.”
Reactions from Fans
As expected, Boity’s words didn’t go unnoticed on social media. The reactions were a mix of agreement and disagreement. Some fans appreciated her perspective, appreciating the balance she strikes between faith and tradition. Others, however, found it difficult to reconcile the two, questioning the theological implications.
@_Lolo_Pat chimed in with this: “What does the word of God say about that? Celebrities are misleading people.”
“What does the word of God say about that? Celebrities nokulahlekisa Abantu.”
@TebogoTheScribe added, “Thank goodness I don’t rely on celebrities to guide my understanding of theology. To those who do, I feel for you, honestly.”
“Thank goodness I don't take my understanding of theology from a celebrity. To those that do, I feel for you, shem.”
@TheRealSmomoh had a different take: “These two have always coexisted. It’s often the newer beliefs that seem to create competition with ancestral practices.”
“They have been co-existing, it's the other belief that always try to compete with ancestors.”
Gogo Skhotheni's Viral Sermon
While Boity’s interview was making waves, another spiritual moment went viral. Gogo Skhotheni, a respected sangoma, delivered a thought-provoking sermon in a church that quickly spread across social media. Her message focused on the younger generation’s obsession with social media and how parents are sometimes overly influenced by online opinions.
The video, shared by Twitter user @S_Phola__, humorously captured her sermon with the caption, “Someone said she is lying.” Gogo’s words resonated with many, sparking discussions about the impact of technology on traditional family values and spiritual beliefs.
