I keep getting messages about my role as Maphalala almost every day; I thought I should make it easier for everyone following my work; like any other job, you get a contract for a certain period. This is to say the contract I signed has ended, and it has been a great journey for my growth as an artist, he said.
I'm grateful to Dr Duma Ndlovu for such an astounding opportunity in my wildest dreams. I never imagined myself being on TV, especially acting. With that being said, I felt it's important I take a moment and engage you on this. he continued.
I'm looking forward to new opportunities as I remain grateful and hardworking he finished.
