The River’s newest addition Emma portrayed by Lunathi Mampofu since her arrival has been a thorn in Lindiwe’s side and it seems she is beginning to be one with viewers.
Emma is proving to be a strong match for Lindiwe and has managed to beat all of Lindiwe’s efforts to get rid of her. Whilst Zolani is head over heels in love with Emma, Lindiwe is the total opposite and has gone out of her way to expose Emma for being a fraud but has failed each time.Viewers seem to be getting tired of Emma’s nine lives and Lindiwe’s constant defeat, isn’t MaLindz Madlabantu after her comes Kalashnikov, so why is Emma constantly winning?
The award-winning drama is about to lose viewers as some are tired of seeing Emma’s face on screens and ready for Lindiwe to get rid Emma.
As much as viewers want to see Emma go, The River’s creative producer Bonga Percy Vilakazi doesn’t understand why South African viewers always gunning for a character’s job as that’s someone’s job at the end of the day.Why are South African viewers always gunning for characters’ deaths? Just because we feel the story is taking too long, or sibhorekile, or whatever the reason. It’s so confusing,” tweeted Bonga.
A tweep responded to Bonga and said that at the end viewers have become used to the fact that no one messes with Lindiwe and gets away with it and that’s is why with Emma viewers have the same expectations. Do you think Emma should go or stay?
