"Which stripper is a pastor publically and unashamedly without being held accountable?" - Ntsiki Mazwai took a swipe at Zodwa Wabantu on Twitter.
Controversial poet Ntsiki Mazwai is firing shots at Zodwa Wabantu. Ntsiki has criticised the entertainer for performing at clubs in barely-there outfits while claiming to be a sangoma.
"One can't be a professional stripper and a sangoma.... There two azihlangani.....Stop undermining and disrespecting African spirituality," she tweeted.

The 41-year-old added in a separate tweet: "... what kind of a sangoma shows her vagina for a living? We keep disrespecting African spiritually comfortably. Which stripper is a pastor publically and unashamedly without being held accountable by some religious authority?"

Zodwa opened up about her ancestral calling earlier this year. She told Drum magazine she started having dreams in September last year.
"I got dreams and got a message to visit home and get something from a tree. I dreamt of beads, something not everyone dreams of, even sangomas would do a lot for them to get a direct message like that... I am currently in the process of accepting my ancestors. But I was advised not to rush myself," she revealed.
While Zodwa has a calling, she reportedly is not a sangoma just yet.

Speaking to TshisaLIVE, Zodwa says she loves her job and won't stop unless her ancestors tell her otherwise.
"This is my job. You know, my ancestors gave it to me. My great-grandfather was the one who was famous. All the travelling that I’ve done or I’m still doing, I don’t think they will make me live bad ... [or] change my living conditions, because they know I’m their child from now, as long as I go wherever they send me," she said.
