In a neck-and-neck finale, Musa Sukwene won Idols SA on Tuesday 26 November, and made history as the first contestant from Mpulanga to win the competition.
Commented Lani Lombard, M-Net s head of Publicity and Special Projects: We have never experienced such a close race before on Idols SA.

- A new Ford Fiesta 1.0 (1 litre) Ecoboost Titanium valued at R238,600 from Ford;
- And the ultimate Idols prize: a recording contract from Universal Music South Africa.
Universal will release a four-track mini-album from Musa in time for Christmas, which will be available exclusively for Samsung customers to download from the Kleek music app.
