The actor who plays Mantwa on Muvhango is a ex-convict, She is 38 years old and goes by the name Morwesi Theledi.

Shrewd regular clientele lured Morwesi into a mundane bank-robbing operation. They’d deliver her gifts and fulfill her commitments.

It was 2008, and she was working in a bank in Dube. They gave her money and stated they were tipping her for a job well done, according to Morwesi.

 

 

 

“My desire for money drew me closer to these people. They used to give me tips and pay all of my bills. This was a criminal enterprise, much to my dismay.”

She was a successful senior manager at the age of 34. They needed her to post 3,000,000 Rands into a fake record after concluding that she had taken countless gifts from the clients.

She claims that her dangers put a stop to her dissent because they assumed she would not do what they said. “Their most recent threat occurred in December 2009, when two people remained outside my yard, depicting what my child was wearing.

They allegedly told her, presuming I don’t make the trade, it will be the last time I see my child.” She agreed to do what she was told because she was forced to.

She claims to have gone into the framework and transferred R2.7 million while keeping R300,000. “After 60 minutes, I decided to break the record by increasing the amount to R27 million.” When the organization recognized this, they alerted the authorities. This was the biggest blunder I’d ever made.”

In 2012, she was sentenced to ten years in prison. While being held at Moder police headquarters, Mantwa went through a lengthy preliminary examination. She joined the Gauteng Department of Community Safety’s rehabilitation program and got down on Get and Stay Out (GOSO) when she was detained.

For this initiative, she became the MEC’s representative. Morwesi became obsessed with acting while incarcerated. She had been there for a long time. One of her children was born while she was incarcerated.

She first appeared on our screens after it was revealed that Tenda and Mphos’ child Kenosi had been kidnapped by James’ mother, Kedibone. Mantwa, played by Morwesi, is James’ mad cousin and accomplice in this crime.

Morwesi is also an eloquent orator. She was able to make the best of a bad situation.
