Moja Love debuted a new reality TV show last night 9 January and South Africans are already applauding the great work that is being carried out by the show.
--
Sunday's episode showed the crew and host of the show go deep into the deep drug-infested capital of Pretoria, Sunnyside and clamped down on the people that are allegedly dealing in drugs. Different drugs were uncovered, drug-dealers were caught distributing drugs and large amounts of money were uncovered.

XOLANI CONFRONTS THE DEALERS The crew of the show went undercover, spoke to the direct people selling the drugs and soon after that, all hell broke loose. The host of the show Xolani Khumalo confronted a number of dealers. One of them tried to plead his case and said he is just a small boy in the game , God bare me my witness, it is not my intention It is not my wish I am so sorry to you guys , is what he kept saying.
--
When Xolani asked him if he knows how many people's lives they are destroying by selling drugs, he kept apologising. Things got even more hard for him when Xolani wanted to confirm that he was in the country legally. His papers had expired, he had been deported from China for being in the country illegally, a number of his things were going wrong but according to Xolani, atleast he was cooperating. He was eventually detained.
This show #Sizokthola is fixing the country.

Some tried to act like they had no idea what they were talking about when they were confronted but there was footage. They were caught dealing but they were denying, they maintained that they were merely selling weed and nothing more.
--
The police that the crew works with was determined to expose and arrest the alleged dealers. They were deep within the roof, looking for drugs, money, everything and anything they could find. A number of people were arrested and detained.
Best show ever!!! Thank you, #mojalove #Sizokthola death sentence please! pic.twitter.com/9U0gbOwrSn

GOVERNMENT SHOULD SUPPORT THIS CONTENT' The Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi took to Twitter to show his support of the show. He said that he has instructed his communication and marketing team to sponsor the show with immediate effect.
I've since instructed my communication and marketing team to immediately sponsor this show. This is not television but nation's call , he wrote.
Some people however did not take kindly to his tweet and said that the government of the country has failed its people. The show is however a hit with the rest of the nation.
It's so sad that the citizens of SA who blindly voted you must rely on some TV shows for basic services, this people are doing what you failing to do an you're sitting there with a heafty salary doing nothing an you have the audacity to praise them for doing your job #Sizokthola https://t.co/dH3sj8rpCm

They shouldn't even appear in court. they should be deported and banned from returning. We can't be feeding them with our tax. We have too many problems to be housing these dogs. #Sizokthola

Drug dealers do not deserve bail, or have their rights respected! These people deserve the highest form of suffering in prison till they day they die! There are so many black families that are broken, and futures ruined because young kids fell victim to drug abuse #Sizokthola

SA is a safe haven for criminals! Its time to ask yourself why people leave their countries and come here to sell drugs to your youth and commit dangerous crime then call us lazy! Mr President tune into #Sizokthola on @MojaLoveTv & give us answers on why your country is a dump!
