Omagarsh!!! Uzalo is flying high. Who would've thought? Bongi Ndaba is doing it big time.

Hee, yazi bendincoma lonto when Scandal posted their ratings on twitter ukuba Imbewu: The Seed is really doing well and drastically catching up on Rhythm City. Ngexesha edlala ngayo Imbewu kubonakalisa ukuba what a flop Rhythm City has turned into lately. I thought Duma Ndlovu was focusing kulambaxo uMuvhango, kodwa ke kuyacaca ukuba Uzalo and Imbewu may be his priorities after all.
