LEETO MAPUTLA: FREE Viewers of the educational soapie, Skeem Saam did not celebrate the way Eric Macheru's character (Leeto Maputla) walked free after he was in trial for the murder of Dragon.
Fans revealed this week that they would stop watching the show if storylines don't improve after Mr Kgomo's (Lebogang Oliphant) revelations weren't used in court.
--
Mr Kgomo, who is in charge of Turfloop Hospital was a witness in Leeto's trial and shared that Dragon died from poison and not gunshot wounds as stated in court.
Soapie fans are calling writers of the show amateurs for not using this information in court and charging Leeto (the shooter) with the crime.

SKEEM SAAM' FANS: NEED NEW WRITERS' @lindelwa_19856: The writer of Skeem is useless now. Why Paxton always getting away with bullying. The writter can't even finished story line mxm. Go to scandal etv they will teach u how to write storyline not this useless Skeem Saam one mxm.
@KitsoDaKit: Let's be honest Skeem Saam no longer makes sense. So, what happened to the serial killer?
@Ginah811: I don't understand. The day Leeto went to ask Mr Kgomo to be his witness he said Dragon died of poison does it mean that postmortem report was not looked at and assumed that he died due to gunshot wounds? The investigators didn't do their proper investigation .
@sufficient_love: Something is wrong there by their writer's room either they are fighting, or they changed, or they hate higher ratings.
@dima_onzima: Okusalako, Dragon died of poisoning. Ya, we're still there and you guys need to get your story together.
@lulushezi: Mr Kgomo even told Leeto that, but they did not use the info in court.

I mean I have no idea why they chose this route. A smart lawyer like Leeto who cracked big cases, pushes aside the fact that Dragon died of poisoning like it never happened
