Multi-award-winning South African musician Makhadzi has sent Zimbabweans into a frenzy with her Shona post.
Makhadzi, who has, over the years, vocally declared her love for Zimbabwe and all things Zimbabwean, has set social media abuzz with her recent post expressing her desire to get married to a Shona man.
Makhadzi Reveals Her Desire for a Shona Husband
Taking to her Facebook account, Makhadzi penned a post in Shona language. The musician wrote that she is praying that she gets married to a husband who is Shona. She emphasized she wants a pure Shona husband.
Furthermore, in the same post, Makhadzi revealed that the man should either be a Zezuru or have a Mhofu totem.
“Ndirikunamata kuti ndione murume Mushona chaiye chaiye muzezuru kana Mhofu zvavo,” she wrote.
Social Media Erupts with Reactions
Makhadzi’s post has got social media buzzing with a flurry of reactions.
Zimbabweans, in particular, were charmed by her decision to pen the post in Shona, expressing their admiration for her fluency in the language.
However, amidst the praise, some netizens couldn’t help but question whether Makhadzi wrote the entire post in Shona by herself. Speculation arose, suggesting that she may have had assistance from a Zimbabwean friend who helped write the posts on her behalf. Others even pointed fingers at Mr Brown, the Zimbabwean music producer, as a potential ghostwriter behind the post.
On the other hand, Zimbabweans found Makhadzi’s post quite witty. Some warmly welcomed her and playfully started referring to her as “Muroora/Makoti,” a term used to address a daughter-in-law in the Zimbabwe culture.
However, amidst the lightheartedness, a section of social media users took a humorous approach and jokingly claimed that Makhadzi might end up heartbroken if she chooses a Shona man with a Mhofu totem.
