Former The Wife and Shaka Ilembe actor Mondli Makhoba, commonly referred to as Bhut’ Omdala, will host a brand-new show dedicated to men.
The show, Vuka Mjita, will feature men who will unashamedly, honestly, and vulnerably express their feelings.
Vuka Mjita is all about taking men on a therapeutic journey that breaks their walls and helps them unlock the doors to the side of healing.
This is with the hope that the process will help them reflect on the men they are becoming and what role they are playing in their families and in society.
Journey to empower men
Viewers will get to see how men in modern-day society try to find their purpose for existence through emotional healing.
The director of local entertainment channels at MultiChoice, Shirley Adonisi, said the show is like being part of a journey to “empower” men.
“We are looking at it as a platform to help understand, nurture, and try to heal the mental state of our brothers and sons where it’s needed,” said Adonisi.
“Our Mzansi brand is all about entertainment that resonates with our audience, and we hope that Vuka Mjita will be more than just that but will also be a show where men can be vulnerable and talk openly and honestly.”
Therapy sessions for participants
Thabang Tlaka, a clinical psychologist and author, will meet with various men who require therapy or a cure to deal with and change the situation they are in.
As an expert in the field, the process he takes them through helps each candidate break down the walls, speak up, and confront their fears.
Makhoba expressed that it is upon men to find out why they exist, because there is a bigger purpose.
Vuka Mjita will premiere on Mzansi Wethu (DStv Channel 163) on July 14 at 8pm.
