The renowned actress is unmarried and loving it. She is married to her career and is in her element. Manaka however has dated Thabo Monareng who is nine years younger than her.

The actress goes on a rant shaming the custom of serving food to men and waiting on bended knee until they were done. This turns social media into a war zone as she comments, “Never! Then when are the kids gonna get the attention they deserve and need if we are busy kneeling for adults that want more attention than the kids they brought into this world? Manaka would rather be single than be treated like a slave. To some extent, she hit the nail on the head.

Ranaka breathes fire on racist tweep

In yet another controversial debacle, the actress calls out a tweep who claims that black Africans quickly desert their own customs to espouse European traditions. This causes a stir between the two cultures and the actress had this to say regarding the issue.

“You might want to start telling white people to return the land they stole from black people. Do it with the same vigour you have for black criticism. So until the land is back, black people can do as they please with what you term ‘white culture’. Start with your own,” Manaka says.
