LUSANDA MBANE EXITS SCANDAL!' Seasoned actress Lusanda Mbane who is popularly known for her role as Boniswa Langa has also joined Mzali Wam.
Mbane currently plays the role of Makhosazanea on e.tv's third most-watched soapie, Imbewu: The Seed.
The actress exited the popular soapie back in August to work on her business, Zazi Zithande Zithembe.
Playing Makhosazana is the return I never expected. She has had me hit the ground running.
I played Boniswa for years and after letting go of the role, I had to mourn her.
Makhosazana has been a great welcome back to the screen character for me.
