Gospel icon Lusanda Mcinga’s recent plea for financial assistance has shed light on the harsh realities faced by many artists. In a heartfelt video that quickly went viral, Mcinga revealed the dire straits she finds herself in, citing a drastic decline in bookings and financial instability as key factors contributing to her current predicament.Since the onset of the pandemic, Mcinga has grappled with the harsh economic fallout, as stringent restrictions and reduced opportunities for public gatherings have severely impacted her ability to earn a living. The loss of income has taken a toll on her financial stability, resulting in the repossession of her vehicles by banks and mounting financial pressures that have left her struggling to make ends meet.

Amidst her financial woes, Mcinga has also faced significant health challenges, further exacerbating her already precarious situation. Despite her hardships, she remains determined to persevere, expressing a fervent desire to release an album and fulfill her musical aspirations before it’s too late.Mcinga’s public appeal has sparked a broader conversation about the financial struggles faced by artists, dispelling the misconception that all singers enjoy lavish lifestyles and substantial wealth. In reality, many artists, particularly those reliant solely on their music careers, encounter significant financial hardships and are forced to navigate a precarious financial landscape.

The notion that artists should diversify their income streams and cultivate financial independence is underscored by Mcinga’s plight, highlighting the importance of financial literacy and prudent financial management within the entertainment industry. Too often, artists find themselves ill-equipped to weather financial downturns, lacking the necessary financial education to plan for unforeseen challenges and safeguard their financial well-being.

As Mcinga’s story serves as a sobering reminder of the fragility of financial security, it also underscores the need for greater support and solidarity within the artistic community. By rallying around artists in times of need and advocating for systemic changes that address the financial vulnerabilities faced by creatives, we can work towards creating a more equitable and sustainable environment for artists to thrive.Ultimately, Mcinga’s plea serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of compassion, empathy, and support for artists facing financial hardship. As we extend a helping hand to Mcinga and others like her, we affirm our commitment to nurturing a vibrant and resilient artistic community where every artist has the opportunity to pursue their passion and fulfill their dreams, free from the burden of financial insecurity.

Actress and media personality Thembi Seete celebrated her child’s birthday on Friday, 13 April — her social media friends and followers on Instagram also decided to send the birthday boy the best of wishes.

‘MY LOVE, MY STRENGTH, MY HAPPINESS’: THEMBI SEETE SHOWS ON HER SON’S B-DAY
In 2018, at the age of 40, Thembi Seete gave birth to her first child. She knocked down a few stereotypes with her pregnancy announcement and welcomed a healthy baby boy. She has recently announced that it was her son, Dakalo’s birthday.

Seete and Collen Mashawana’s child turned six on Friday. Taking to her feed to mark Dakalo’s birthday, the former Boom Shaka singer said that the little boy means the world to her.

“Today is my son’s birthday. Happy birthday Dakalo my love, my strength, my happiness, and my peace. Love you my mokomosos,” she captioned.

Having been thrust into the limelight at 17, the award-winning actress tries her best to keep some parts of her life private. She took her sweet time to announce her pregnancy and to also reveal her child’s face to the world. According to Savanna News, the 47-year-old actress only showed Dakalo’s face on his fourth birthday.

According to the publication, Seete’s baby daddy Mashawana is said to be a business from Limpopo and a famous millionaire and friend of President Cyril Ramaphosa. He was reported to be the founder and executive chairman of an investment company called Afribiz Invest Pty.

According to a source quoted by TshisaLIVE, Seete, like many celebrities have done in the past, tried to hold off for as long as she could before revealing her baby bump to the world. “She tried to hide it but there was no way you could miss the bump at some points,” the source was quoted as saying.

Following her birthday post, Seete has since received a bunch of lovely messages from her friends and social media followers.

Unbelievable, Musa Mseleku’s reasons why he wants a 5th wife keep on changing. At first, Musa Mseleku revealed that he wants to marry a 5th wife because he wants to have 20 children. Currently, Musa has 10 children and it seems like he is working on getting to 20.Musa Mseleku’s Wives and The Truth About His Alleged 5th Wife

Some of Musa Mseleku’s wives’ ages though cannot allow for them to give him more kids. The time that he mentioned it, he was talking about MaCele and MaYeni. At the time, MaKhumalo and MaNgwabe still had a chance, but the problem with MaKhumalo is that she does not have children of her own.Thobile MaKhumalo Mseleku – YouTube

In the previous seasons of Uthando Nesthembu, Musa Mseleku’s reason for wanting the 5th wife at first was that he wanted to grow the MaKhumalo household.

MaKhumalo does not have children with Musa, so Musa now wants to marry someone who has the Khumalo surname so that MaKhumalo’s name will not perish. Musa said by doing this, he is apparently protecting MaKhumalo’s name.

Uthando Nesthembu is now in the 6th season and Musa Mseleku has yet again changed his reasons why he wants to marry the 5th wife. On the recent episode of Uthando Nesthembu, we saw Musa Mseleku visiting Mr. Ngcamu who helped him get MaYeni to join his polygamy. Musa Mseleku revealed that does not take a wife without informing Mr, Ngcamu.

“I wouldn’t take any wife without informing you”, said Musa.

With Mr. Ngcamu, Musa spoke about the 5th wife as he still wants to go ahead and marry again. Mr. Ncamu asked Musa Mseleku what if the wife that he wants to marry does not give him children. Musa Mseleku responded by saying, “One thing number 5 has gone past wanting more children. Even if she does not give me children it does not matter, what matters is protecting the legacy”.

It seems like this time around Musa wants to protect his legacy more than grow his household. In my opinion, I doubt that Musa will keep this reason for wanting to marry wife number 5, it seems like he just wants to find any reason possible so that his other wives can agree and allow him to marry another wife.
