“Enkosi [thank you] Mama. I remember it was the time that you brought talk shows in our country, [and] for the first time on our televisions. Big ups to our legendary pioneer Mama,” Madlingozi wrote.

“What a wonderful time that was– when black & white, young & older South Africans came together to hold what I call an “indaba” or “lekgotla” on TV. It was a forum where we discovered new talent and showcased #Mzansi legends like yourself. Proud of you! Keep soaring! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾,” Mabuza-Suttle said
