Two white men say they have accepted their calling and are
now helping people with life problems.
Kevin “Inyanga Yezizwe” Bower (48) and Samuel “Mehlemamba”
Montgomery (35)speak Zulu fluently. Yezizwe said he started his training as an
inyanga in his late 20s and was forced to leave his job as a mechanic.
“I knew at a very tender age that I have a special gift of
seeing things, but I didn’t think it was related to the ancestors. But as I
grew older I noticed I was able to see things before they happen.”
He told the Daily Sun he saw a cross hanging over his parents’ heads and
after two weeks they both died. “I consulted a local inyanga who told me that
seeing things was my calling,” he said.
Mehlemamba said he was 22 when he started having endless
dreams about a river until somebody told him his ancestors were calling him. “I
graduated four years ago,” he said.
Their gobela, Dr Khwesha Mbamali, said the two men live
with him.
