However the character was no more when Norman Moloi's drama returned to Btv's programming. Moriri had taken a different path in life, away from the promise of glamour that comes with the silver screen to practise traditional medicine in his home village of Modipane. The 33-year-old claims that God called him to the vocation. He says that he "died" twice before he could finally accept his calling.
"I was in South Africa when the first incident took place. I was alone at a farm I had proposed to buy. I lost my breath and felt dizzy. I quickly sat down because I was afraid of falling badly. From then on it was like I was dreaming. I saw an old man who led me on a certain path. On one side of that long path were girl toddlers and on the other were boys with their mothers," he relates. Moriri says he was scared when he woke up and went to his cousin's place near Rustenburg. But that decision was to further complicate matters. He was chased out late in the night. He moved to another cousin where he witnessed the landlord assaulting his host with a metal rod on the face, accusing him of accommodating strangers in the house. Things became even more complicated for the young man, days after the incident. The cousin who had chased him away called a few days later informing him that their uncle who was also a traditional doctor had passed on in Modipane.
