ALFRED ANNOUNCED AS THE NEW PRINCIPAL #TeamAlfredMagongwa were all smiles after last night's episode and congratulated him after Desando announced him as the new principal at Turfloop High after Jacobeth Thobakgale's demotion this season. But Alfred's news didn't sit well with some Skeem Saam viewers, who hoped that either Evelyn (Veli Manetje) or Manaka (Skhumbuzo Mbatha) will get the position at Turfloop High.
Fans of the show also criticised the show as Alfred (Putla Sehlapelo) is a villain who gets away with everything on the soapie.
--
The TVSA September teasers also show that Alfred's greed might get the best out of him when Marothi bribes him with a huge gift.
Tuesday 6 September:
Alfred is presented with a really expensive gift from an unscrupulous businessman.
Wednesday 7 September:
--
Alfred is forced to return an expensive gift that's giving him sleepless nights.

SKEEM SAAM' VIEWERS REACT @Abigail41353917:
I'm so disappointed. Evelyn was deserving and Manaka's name was called first for what? I guess let's give #Magonwa enough rope and watch him hang himself fid more drama.
@OracleSpark:
What r the odds that y'all did this for viewership, knowing he'll eventually flop and then the right principal is elected in the end.
@mambano_:
The way the department treats Manaka is unfair. He is good enough to bail Turf high and stand in when there is a crisis but not good enough to be the principal? I hope he leaves and applies elsewhere.
@MaboeNdi:
They've put Magongwa I'm not happy and I'm happy at the same time. That will bring us drama, a lot will happen under him being the principal. Yoooh I can't wait for the truth about the incident and how he got the letter from the doctor drama drama drama!

Your storylines always have a disappointing ending, I wouldn't be surprised if Lehasa leaves Pretty to get back with Khwezi when that story line resumes.

The story of Magongwa shows exactly what happens in real life. Hard workers are never appreciated to higher positions but only lazy gossipers get higher posts. Big up to #SkeemSaam
