Last night's episode holds a very special place in my heart. Those who know how delicate and sacred the initiation process from boyhood to manhood is, know how it affected my family once upon a time. I dedicate yesterday's episode to my parents and siblings. Thank you so much for watching the first episode of Gqeberha: The Empire.
Daily Sun reports that the episode was about Anathi's brother coming from initiation and illustrated the ups and downs of the Xhosa initiation process and how challenging the process can be for families.

GQEBERHA: THE EMPIRE': HER ROLE AS ANATHI Anathi Njoloza (played by actress Akhenime Mfenyana) is a young woman who wants to open a restaurant so she can support her grandmother and younger brother in Gqeberha: The Empire.
She's got a strong bond with her fiance Luzuko's son Thulani but has agreed to marry his father and become his fourth wife.

The father and son are both mesmerized by her beauty and while viewers want Thulani to be with her, they understand she might want to marry his father for the benefits.
