CONTROVERSIAL channel Moja Love has introduced a new show that has already angered viewers.
Umakhwapheni is for sidechicks who want to confront their lovers to find out where they stand.
It was announced over the weekend, but viewers said it’s a bad idea that would only destroy marriages.
Twitter user Mr Boss Man wrote: “So you want to destroy marriages? I’m starting to believe that Moja Love has no good intentions.
“The best interests of South Africans are not their concern.”
Jimmy Gweba wrote: “This will destroy people’s lives. Some might even claim to be ‘omakhwapheni’ just to destroy people’s marriages/courtships.”

Moja Love told the Sun Team there had been complaints.
Head of marketing and PR, Lindiwe Mbonambi, said there’d been mixed responses.
“We’ve noted the public comments about the show. They’re diverse in nature and reflective of the various public perceptions.”
Lindiwe said the show was inspired by Uyajola 9/9, which was hosted by Molemo “Jub Jub” Maarohanye.
“The show is providing a platform for people who have relationship issues and need to find closure,” she said.
“While doing research for Uyajola 9/9, we discovered that there were a lot of people in secret relationships who were unhappy.
“Viewers can expect content that will take a look into the various issues that lead people to make the decisions they make in their relationships.”
Lindiwe said the parties involved would be offered counselling. Comedian Mashabela Galane, who’d been on the show’s call-to-entry clips, was not going to be the presenter.
