Koloi's design dream will come true, just like Leshole's (Thabo Mkhabela) pilot dream came true in June.
--
Koloi's storyline is a replica of Leshole as they grew up in a similar backgrounds and faced the same challenges before their dreams were realised.

Leshole's mother, Bafedile (Candy Tsamandebele) abandoned him when he was young, whilst Koloi's mother died in a fire.
Leshole was raised by his father who supported his dreams just like Koloi's (Tshepo Senatle) uncle.
--
Leshole and Koloi are great friends who have been supporting each other since Turfloop High and stayed connected even after graduating.
Koloi dreams of being a successful jewellery designer and has entered a jewellery designing competition that will advance his career should he win.
They re going to abuse him again, he will get having bad luck throughout. Nothing ever works out for that boy no matter how hard he tries. Listen we know this happens in real life too but we watch TV as an escape sometimes and seeing the lives we live on TV can be depressing

LESHOLE'S RETURN TO TURFLOOP Leshole Mabitsela had fans worried that he will not be returning to the popular soapie after his temporary exit.
--
#SkeemSaam on Twitter were elated when they heard Leshole's voice this week since his exit in June.
Mkhabela's character passed his proficiency test and left Turfloop to work as a commercial pilot.
He left his friends six months ago and might now be returning to the educational soapie.

WHY LESHOLE AND KOLOI ARE FAN-FAVOURITES Fans are protective over Leshole and Koloi because they relate to their life stories.
Viewers also connect to Mkhabela and Senatle's characters because they've both lost their on-screen parents.
Mkhabela's father, Big Boy Mabitsela, played by veteran actor, Charles Maja passed away in April 2020 from a stroke.
Senatle's on-screen stepmother, Sis Ouma, played by actress, Nokuzola Mlengana passed away in July this year from pneumonia.
So good to hear Lesholes voice #SkeemSaam
