Umbuso's viewers wept for Lihle and begged writers for another season this past Sunday (26 June) as they wanted to see Samora arrested.
--
The Monday night drama series Umbuso left fans at the edge of their seats with its captivating storylines and talented cast from Skeem Saam's Nozi Langa, The Queen's Kwanele Mthethwa, Scandal!'s Bathabile Mashigo, Uzalo's Omuhle Gela and more.
Although I did not get what I wanted (to see Samora in prison and for Mike to come back), I enjoyed #Umbuso. Episode after episode, they held it down. Sad that it was the last episode. pic.twitter.com/vm8BbSZHsi

SHOCKING SEASON FINALE In the season finale, Lihle learns that she and Samora (Sandile Mahlangu) are siblings, and the man they thought was their uncle is actually their biological father.
Viewers then see her with her grandmother who confirms her worst fears, that she and Samora are siblings.
--
She also learns that her previous miscarriage was caused by her grandmother who poisoned her to prevent her from having a baby with her brother.
Audiences are devastated for her and shed tears when she shares her trauma with Tshepiso and his wife, Bassie (Nozi Langa).
She also realises that Samora has always known about their paternity, who also confesses to murdering their mother.
--
Umbuso viewers are looking forward to season two as they want to see Samora arrested and Lihle (Kwanele Mthethwa) running her father's company.

-- UMBUSO' VIEWERS REACT TO STORYLINES @Jabu_Macdonald:
So Tshepiso and Thembelihle are actually half-siblings and Thembelihle fell pregnant with her half-brother's baby this is disgusting.
@PheladiMusa:
This is why Magogo terminated the pregnancy with tea yako mai mai.
@Lady_Blvck:
In Acrimony, Samora's mom is in the wrong period.
@_Thembalihle_:
It's officially the producers hate Lihle this child never catches a break.
She is too beautiful for all this heartache after heartache.
@Jabu_Macdonald:
The nerve to continue to Frame other people knowing very well that he killed his own mother Samora is the devil himself.
Lihle needs to wake up and realize that her brother is cruel.

oh no man, Lihle is dreaming about Mike calling her princess and telling her "I love you princess".
This takes me back on the first episode, I thought Lihles name was Princess because Mike used to always call her Princess. #Umbuso pic.twitter.com/ShPuWg7dbX

The fact that today is the season finale of #umbuso doesn't sit well with me .
Naurrr because Samora is still free and nothing is being done to him!!

From the 1st episode, I didn't like her. Power got into her head, speaking to employees like she owns them
Her going through the most actually showed us another side of her, a better version of Lihle if I may put it. Let's see how she is in season2 #Umbuso maybe find love? pic.twitter.com/53h7jfPf9d
oh honey! (@_NayyKnights) June 26, 2022
what if Lihle is preggies with Mike's child
TshepiRams (@m_Motswana) June 26, 2022
Maybe Mike will come back on season 2

Kwanele is nailing this Lihle character, and effortlessly so. Her tears & emotions are so believable. She ate & left no crumbs #umbuso pic.twitter.com/Mo957lQT6p
