Isencane Lengane, a reality TV show aired on Moja Love, is facing intense backlash after a recent episode left viewers outraged and demanding its cancellation.

Episode 14, season 6, featured deeply disturbing events involving the show's main couple, Thando and Siyacela Dlamuka.

The episode showcased a confrontation between Thando's mother and Siyacela at Lubanzi’s birthday party.

During the heated exchange, Thando's mother expressed her anger towards Siyacela for swearing at Thando. She confronted him, saying, "When you say my child no longer satisfies you and you blatantly said that on TV, that's offensive to me. Please don't ever say that."

Siyacela responded defiantly, "If I say it again, then what will you do?"

This confrontation led to Thando breaking down in tears and leaving the party at her in-laws' with her mother and her son, Lubanzi. Despite this, Siyacela took his car and went to fetch his son.

During their return journey back, their car caught fire.

"I had mechanical issues and then the car started burning. The car started burning underneath. Then it burst on the petrol tank at the back, which was the side Thando, Lubanzi's mother, was seated on. It burst on that side," Siyacela explained.

He admitted that he thought about locking Thando in the car while it was burning.

"My heart nearly made me lock the door and lock her inside the car. But then I removed that thought. She's the reason why the car burnt down. Because if she had not left, I wouldn't have gone to fetch my son."

These comments have caused a storm of criticism online, with many people accusing Siyacela of planning to harm his wife and child. Viewers are now calling for Moja Love to cancel the show.

X user @YoTay_ strongly criticised the show, saying “can they remove that revolting show #isencanelengane.. dude basically confessed to a pre-meditated attempted murder and those old frogs are so backwards in their thinking by condoning domestic violence.. shut that shit down @MojaLoveTv”

@tickleta said “Moja love, did well in exposing him for what he is, so that if anything happens to Thando, it shall be known that he was always capable of murder, and have been contemplating it.”

@Dexigner2 commented “@Siyacela's uncle is right when he says that Siyacela is a dead man walking. He doesn't have any respect for anyone. For this old women defending him is clear sign that they are empty upstairs. #IsencaneLengane”

@Cebsdlamin slammed the channel for airing such content “When Siyacela said he thought of locking Thando and their child inside a burning car, what did you find entertaining and worthy to watch as a channel. Let this be the last episode and last season of that nonsense. You people do not take human life seriously.”
