When news broke of Ndlovu joining the popular drama series, there were a few fans concerned about his ability to communicate effectively in Sepedi, the dominant language used in the series.
“Of course, I can. I grew up in Polokwane and Seshego. It might not be my mother tongue but I can definitely speak the language,” he told IOL Entertainment in a previous interview.
Not only does season 12 bring new faces but will also welcome a new, fresh and modern opening title sequence and updated logo.
The concept is centred around bold expression and walking forward towards a brighter future.
