Uzalo’s spokeswoman, Nomfundo Zondi revealed why Nelisa’s exit wasn’t made official.
“We didn’t announce her exit because her thing was on and off. Producers and writers were trying to see if they could continue with Fikile. They were not sure whether her storyline was continuing or not. That is why her exit was not announced.”
