Cici opens up about ordeal that made her stronger

About eight months ago, Busisiwe Twala (Cici), was allegedly abused by her partner Arthur Mafokate. Although she has since recovered from the incident, she recently had to reopen old wounds. Cici did this when she unpacked the clothes she arrived in at the hospital on the night of the abuse.

She took to Instagram, where she posted a video of the clothes she had worn.

“For the first time today I unpacked the clothes that I arrived in at the Hospital… Quite sickening to think a person can cause such harm to another. Just reminded me that I did the right thing by speaking out about my abuse… This is 4the night the old me died.”

Cici said with her second chance, she has learned to be her own hero. She has even forgiven Arthur Mafokate.

“Spent 4-5 in surgery. Had to learn how to walk again… But most of all needed to learn to love my scars because this is what warriors are made of. On this night God granted me a second chance at life and I will run with it never to look back. Superheroes don’t always wear Capes… I needed to be my own superhero and knight in shining armor. #StopAbuse Thank you to @notinmynamesa for helping me fight this battle… Learning to forgive a man who wasn’t sorry was the hardest part… #takebackyourlife #takebackyourpower,” said Cici.
