NAY MAPS: SIPHAMANDLA DISSAPEARS
Entertainment commentator, Phil Mphela reports that the former Uzalo star Nay Maps is still shooting with Umkhokha: The Curse.

Mphela tweeted on Friday, 5 January: “To those who’ve been sending questions about Nay Maps leaving the show, I have received confirmation that the actor is still with the show.”

“Rhythm World, the production company producing the show, has confirmed that the actor is still shooting the show. I can’t give more details as that will be disrespectful to the show as a spoiler, but you will be seeing the actor for a while this year, at least.”

Rumours of Maps’ departure from the show began when his pastoral character, Siphamandla Mthembu disappeared and never returned from “ritual mountain”.

The TVSA Umkhokha: The Curse Thursday, 4 January teaser reads: “Umkhululi has not returned. Fear and hope run side by side when Siphamandla doesn’t come down from the mountain.”

The Friday, 5 January teaser also reveals that his late father will take him away: “Mthembu takes Siphamandla away from this world.”
