South African television presenter and actor, Nimrod Nkosi, gained fame for hosting the Lotto draw on e.tv and also worked as a host on the youth variety show, Jam Alley so what has he been up to lately?

Nimrod Nkosi’s story in the limelight began in 1994 when he landed a role in the drama series ‘U Bambo Lwami according to The Nation.’ Little did anyone know that this young talent would go on to become a household name in South African television.

 

 

 

 

Nimrod’s career has been nothing short of remarkable. He’s best known for his role as the presenter of the Lotto draw on e.tv, a live show that captured the hearts of many. But that’s not all. This versatile actor and presenter have graced our screens in various other capacities.

He spent five memorable years as the host of ‘Jam Alley,’ a youth variety show, earning two Avanti awards for Best Presenter along the way. Nimrod also showcased his acting skills in series like ‘Pale Toe‘ and ‘The Last Hope.’

Fans of the soap opera ‘Scandal’ will remember his portrayal of Hector, and Nimrod Nkosi also hosted the late-night show ‘Your Late Mate‘ on Soweto TV.

In 2007, Nimrod took on a new challenge as the host of the Lotto game show ‘Raise Your Game,’ and from 2011 to 2012, he played the recurring role of Norman Sebeka on ‘The Wild.’

TALENT
In 2015, Nimrod Nkosi took over the reins of ‘Utatakho,’ an Mzansi Magic docu-reality series, and also made a guest appearance on season two of ‘I Love South Africa,’ an e.tv game show.

Nimrod Nkosi has undoubtedly left an indelible mark on South African television, and his diverse range of roles showcases his talent and versatility as a performer.

Well-known Mzansi actor, presenter, and director, Thami Mngqolo, was known for his role as Senzo Dhlomo in the soap opera Generations, so what has he been up to lately?

Born on 9 September, 1982, in Johannesburg, where he currently resides, Thami remains a prominent figure in South African entertainment according to a local publication.

His portrayal of Senzo Dhlomo, the son of Sibusiso Dhlomo and stepson of Ntombi Dhlomo, is etched in the memories of fans who fondly remember his on-screen romance with Xolisa Xaluva’s Jason.

Following his departure from Generations, Thami has continued to shine as an actor, presenter, and director.While he may have bid farewell to Senzo Dhlomo, his talent and charisma continue to captivate audiences in various other projects.

Thami even made a triumphant return to our screens. He set out to play the role of ‘Maradona‘ in BET_Africa’s ‘Isono‘ (The Sin).

Maradona was portrayed as a hustler who became a part of Gabriel’s gang, marking a fresh chapter in Mngqolo’s acting journey.In the ever-evolving world of South African entertainment, Thami Mngqolo remains a beloved figure. Thami has maintained a low profile on social media. This sparked concerns about his well-being.

However, the actor is doing well and has since allegedly transitioned into sports presenting and directing. Rumor has it that he’s also ventured into hosting events and acting as an MC.

While he may have left our screens, his journey continues, albeit in a quieter, but no less significant, way.

It’s a somber truth that South Africa has bid farewell to numerous legends within its entertainment industry in recent times. Often, it’s only in the wake of their passing that we come together to celebrate their immense contributions.

Yet, a heartening change seems to be underway as individuals take to social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook to honor these luminaries while they still grace us with their presence.

One shining example emerges from a South African Twitter user who, in a beautifully poignant gesture, paid homage to the iconic actor Ronnie Nyakale. This homage isn’t bound by the veil of loss; it’s a tribute that finds resonance in the moment. The user shared images of Ronnie Nyakale, urging the Twitterverse to amplify this tribute by retweeting the post. The message is simple but profound: “My Legend Ronnie Nyakale 🙏🙏 Retweet if you think he is a Legend.”

And it seems this call didn’t fall on deaf ears. Enter Julius Malema, the commanding voice of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF). With a retweet, he sends a resounding affirmation that Ronnie Nyakale is indeed a South African legend.

In a world where recognition often arrives belatedly, this collective act of paying homage to living legends offers a glimmer of hope. It’s a reminder that admiration need not wait for the final curtain call, and that the impact of these luminaries can be celebrated while they still grace our lives. Social media becomes the stage for this tribute, a stage where unity and recognition create a chorus of appreciation that resonates across the digital realm.
