No doubt the teasers left many asking questions after they revealed that the star would be leaving but didn't clarify whether it was for good.

The teaser reads: Elizabeth gives Jacobeth and Oom Tladi shocking news. The Maputlas bid Tbose farewell. Charles is set on enrolling Benjamin and Makwena at Aprendo Preparatory School.

However, in the backdrop of the news, Briefly News reported that SABC confirmed that the seasoned actor is not being written off from the storyline.

According to the publication, the SABC's publicity specialist, Caroline Phalakatshela, said: I can confirm with you that Hungani Ndlovu is not going anywhere. I just spoke to the shows production about the claims of him leaving and they declined it, specifying that he will still be Tbose on Skeem Saam.
