The perfect epitome of ‘mam sghebengu’ is the role mam Sonto has been acing from the first episode to the last, a mother and business owner during the day and a criminal mastermind at night.
Gomora is a new but very popular television show that airs on MzanziMagic every Mondays to Fridays and the talent and entertainment it provides has ensured it a huge followership in South Africa.
The show’s first episode was in flames and the entire season has remained nothing but flames after flames, it began with tons of drama when mam Sonto’s crew, including the son of principal Dlamini, hijacked a beautiful Mercedes Benz and the hijack ended with mam Sonto’s son in law being the victim and paying with his life.
That meant his family would have to move back to Gomora with mam Sonto and this move saw her daughte, Onthatile, diving head into her mother’s criminal world and at some point being the mastermind behind some of the hijackings that took part.
Mam Sonto and her crew managed to beat every competition that has tried to take over her territory until the arrival of Don, who in this case took what mam Sonto had already left behind. Mam Sonto and her crew; Onthatile and Mazet, had been out of action for a while when Don was recruited by Sdumi and London but he ended up being their boss and eventually giving the orders that saw mam Sonto end up in the hospital.
With the arrival of her granddaughter, Onthatile’s daughter, it seems the girl is back to replace her grandmother since she is on her way out of the popular Gomora. Mam Sonto has managed to be the star actress in the show this far but it seems the end has arrived for her as she is in her way out .
Whether her Granddaughter will maintain the level of artistry and entertainment mam Sonto has managed to deliver on a daily basis is a question that can only be answered if the viewers stay tuned to their screens for the best entertainment on MzanziMagic, channel 161 on DSTV.
