HIS GOMORA' EXIT Sunday World reported that the fan-favourite actor Zolisa Xaluva ditched the show to pursue other opportunities after disagreeing with the show producers.
A source from the show informed the publication that the actor confronted producers as he was not comfortable with his storyline before resigning.
Another informer stated that Xaluva's frank attitude on several issues rubbed producers the wrong way and they're happy to see him go.
Producers have been trying to get rid of him but MultiChoice refused to let him go, and eventually got the go-ahead.'
He is a brilliant actor, but there are things producers can't tolerate.'
Gomora's publicist Linda Matsolo confirmed his exit from the publication and added that his character will soon be off the telenovela.
Xaluva's character was married to Gladys Dlamini, played by Idols SA judge and actress Thembi Seete, who is now dating Fezile Makhanya's character Principal Cele.
