The moral of the story is, believe your child the first time they tell you something.

Hi madam speaker my name is Ntombi Mashiya from Orange Farm. Im writting on behalf of my husband Zanele William Mashiya  who once work at 7de Laan production and lost his job when the production ended October 2023 due to the end of contract between SABC and Danie Odendaal production. Im writting to you with a hope that you can be able to help him get a job. He was a camera operator but started as a cable basher and was trained and became a camera operator. He was with the production from 2018 until the end of the production 2023. Please please help him in order for him to be able to support his 4 children i beg. Thanks

I can relate. My aunts daughter was raped by her own father for many years. As soon as the mother found out,she opened a case,then went to drop it. The time we found out as a family,sadly my aunt passed away. Our hands were tight.  Im glad the Dog also passed on

Normalize having hidden cameras around the house!!!!

That's why he didn't wanted to have any children, he knew the monster in him will come out and such will happen . His family is mentally sick... Thank you for sharing this story with us this is an eye opener to every mother out there 🙏 ❤️

I think this man knew he has a thing for children, that’s why he didn’t want to have his own😢 Even his suspicion of his brother molesting his own child was a fact not just a suspicion. He wanted to see his wife’s reaction to check how sensitive she is to the matter. He is a master manipulator, so my sister don’t blame yourself, you did not know such evil existed let alone from a person who created such a “credible“ facade. Justice might not be served legally but he will reap what he has sown, I’m sure he is already paying for what he did. May you and your children find healing, prosper and flourish into the future ❤ God is El Roi, He has seen all that you’ve been through. May you get all the answers you need from God and may He order your steps always. May you and your children see better days in 2025 & going forward

It's so true always believe the child. My son told me at the age of 9 that my brother was touching his bum. I believed him and confronted my brother. He denied and I kicked him out of my house immediately.

MADAME Zengele used to teach me in Southview high school. She used to be so open. I wish her nothing but healing. 🎉❤❤

Most child molesters are hiding in churches, especially in Jehovah's witness church, because there are less rules or law protecting women.. May God heal your child Miss Zengele and you too❤

What a courageous lady, thank you for raising awareness. You have saved many kids with this story

After the episode we all need a counseling session. What a heavy episode.

Kids doesn’t lie Mama , trust your children from now on.😢

my advice to mothers,dont b too desperate for a marriage/relationship so much so that you turn a blind eye t0 evil around ,your child is supposed to be your first priority my heart is breaking for that child and iam just disgusted,may the child find peace and strength to cope with this nightmare I can just imagine the pain ,confusion and helplessness from the child all these years when she could not be seen and head by the one person that shield  and protect her from all the evil.😓😡

I’m disappointed in how this was handled by elders😢this is so horrible and heartbreaking.

I am a mental health professional abd have worked extensively with EUPD.... This is an important discussion.  Thank you for sharing.

Here's my conclusion

Her husband was raised in a similar household. His mother knew about it and kept it as a family secret. His mother allowed it with the reasoning that it would keep their marriage intact as her husband was getting satisfaction within the home.

He witnessed inappropriate behaviour from his father towards his sisters and it was an open secret in the home. He saw that situation 'working' and he was hoping for the same in his home. It's like how abusive men hope that their victims will enable them just like their mothers enabled their fathers.

Her husband was expecting her to come to terms with it, normalise it and allow it just as was the case in the household he grew up in. She disappointed him by making a big deal of it unlike his mother.

Social media is helping to bring awareness of ancient societal secrets that have been practised in some households. What a shame.

He will reap what he sews shame,even if justice doesn't prevail, but the universe will deal with him😢💔

When you said the image of the church i FELT IT, my abusive ex was protected by the church. I almost became a statistic while Pastors knew and did nothing. Made me feel like i was lacking the holy spirit as i couldn't forgive his abusive ways.. Their best line is that you are leaving God when you leave abuse .. So sorry for the trauma he caused you and your family more over to your daughter,I pray healing

Ma'am  Zengele, I  thank you for sharing your story with us. I'm a 70 year old granny and I don't trust any man. My eyes are swollen from crying with you. You are a strong mother and a wife, who would go an extra mile to keep her family together. Don't blame yourself for what happened. Now that you have forgiven him, God is going to give you all the answers you need. The battle is not yours anymore, take a back seat and watch God working on your enemies. Stay blessed. ❤❤❤❤

I’m proud of her for fighting for her kids,even after so long,fact remains,she fought for them.❤️
