Boity talks about being a Christian and a traditional healer

Boity Thulo recently opened up about her faith during an interview with L-Tdio.

The businesswoman was the latest guest on the podcast, and they had conversations about various things.


Boity who announced being a sangoma years ago shared her view about God and the ancestors.

“Those worlds can co-exist, there’s God then there are ancestors, that’s lineage stuff and things that we do for that. We don’t pray to ancestors, I still pray to God, I still listen to gospel music, those worlds it’s not like you can’t be a God-fearing person and still go practice ancestral duties, those things can co-exist,” she said.

The rapper further addressed debates about the non-existence of ancestors.

“There was a conversation of Christians believing that the bible says there’s no such thing as ancestors, everyone who’s dead is dead.’

“I feel like it’s a conversation for another day because that would take hours to uncover and dissect. But personally, there’s never been a space in me that said I’m rejecting this part of me so that I can fulfil this part. They live together,” she added.

“There are some ancestors that you walk with that still require you to read the bible, that’s why I’m saying I don’t understand why people think that those worlds can’t coexist, they can you can do one and the other, one doesn’t cancel the other based on your belief system.”
