Women For Change Demands Cancellation Of Moja Love's 'isencane Lengane' For Normalising Abuse

Women's advocacy group Women For Change has added their voice to the calls for the discontinuation of channel Moja Love reality show Isencane Lengane .

The organisation highlighted the devastating impact of gender-based violence and domestic abuse in their communities and the channels decision to continue exploiting this reality for entertainment value.

This is not just irresponsible, it is dangerous. By broadcasting such abuse without adequate intervention and accountability, Moja Love is normalising and trivialising gender-based violence, sending the harmful message that abuse is acceptable if it brings in viewers.

Over the years, the popular reality show has drawn mixed reactions from viewers. It follows the lives of Thando and Siyacela Dlamuka who got married as teenagers in 2019.

The reality show has sparked controversy due to concerns about the couple's relationship dynamics, particularly Siyacela's perceived abusive behavior and past admissions of violence.
