TEBOGO MAKENA, WHO CHARGED R50 000 FOR AN IN-PERSON CONSULTATION, IS NEITHER A MEDICAL DOCTOR NOR HAS A PhD.

Tebogo Makena, the ‘’Oracle Under The Sun’’ who charges from R25 000 to R2 million, wrote on his LinkedIn and Instagram that he holds a PhD in Sports Medicine from the University of Pretoria.

However, this could not be further from the truth. ‘’He never attended the university,’’ said the director of institutional advancement at the University of Pretoria, Rikus Delport.

Delport added that it is not a common occurrence for an individual to make such a claim without a shred of proof.

Makena has not had a good relationship with the law. He and another inmate were bust in 2017 while running an extortion operation from inside Odi Prison.

They allegedly pretended to be police detectives and called police stations in order to obtain information regarding automobile thefts and hijackings. They would contact victims and demand money in exchange for their automobiles’ return.

He apparently lived a luxury lifestyle while in the facility by allegedly bribing the warden to bring him what he desired.

According to convicts who spoke to Pretoria News, Makena gushed about his clothes, jewellery and food he received.
