‘We bagged our 4th property’ – Gogo Maweni

Celebrity traditional healer Gogo Maweni whose real name is Makgotso Mokopo, and her traditional healer husband Sabelo Mgube, continue to build their wealth brick by brick, adding another property to their name.

Gogo Maweni who is rumoured to be the wealthiest traditional healer in South Africa has always shared how she makes her money by acquiring assets that will yield other streams of income.

Late last year, the celebrity sangoma shared that she had acquired her third property that she purchased to turn into a business investment for her kids.

Property is not the only thing the couple invest their money in. Late last year they shared a video of cattle stock they purchased for farming purposes.

It is no secret that the couple has money as it was also rumoured last year that Sabelo paid a huge lobola amount for his queen. Gogo Maweni confirmed the amount paid as R150 000, adding that Sabelo will finish the remaining balance before their wedding.

The mother of three who has shared in the past that people should not celebrate houses bought through a bond as they still belong to the bank, shared her latest and fourth property, a massive house with a huge yard. She captioned her post:

“When God & our ancestors say YES! No one can say NO! We bagged our 4th property @velabahleke_the_king here’s to hard work, dedication and success…together we are unstoppable my love, let’s make memories.”

Those who follow the outspoken sangoma took to her social media to share congratulatory messages, commenting:

“Congrats mama! To generational wealth & many more properties,” shared one user.

Another user commented, “Congratulations gogo. I love seeing idlozi lisebenza (ancestors working).”
