Traditional medicine otherwise known as 'muti' in isiZulu has been relied on for centuries by many African people. Despite the evolution of western medicine, many still today in South Africa and the African continent as a whole still rely on muti.

Whether you believe in muti or not is inconsequential when it comes to this week's edition of #TheFixer.

#TheFixer is a feature on Stacey and J Sbu's show in which the duo gives KZN listeners an opportunity to share their dilemmas that they seek advice on. Together with the help of fellow KZN listeners, Stacey and J Sbu try to help the concerned party fix their problem.

Khethiwe* sent Stacey and J Sbu a voice note needing guidance and help pertaining to an issue with her younger brother. According to Khethiwe her younger brother's actions are being controlled by his girlfriend through the use of muti.

Khethiwe shares that her brother has been seeing his girlfriend for a little over 2 months and in the two months that the couple have been together, there have been noticeable changes in how her brother has been with their family.
