Many Imbewu fans were disappointed when performers Tony Kgoroge and Fundiswa Zwane departed the show, but they were pleased to see Muzi Mthabela and Brenda Mhlongo replace them.
Brenda plays Priscilla “KaMadonsela” Bhengu, while Muzi takes on the part of Zimele Bhengu. Brenda denied that she was sacked by the show’s producers.
