Rami Chuene has delivered encouraging news to the acting community, confirming that the SABC has agreed to cover her repeat fees for her role in the drama series Giyani: Land of Blood<\/em>.<\/p>\n

On Monday, 19 May 2026, the seasoned actress posted the update on social media, sharing that she had received formal correspondence from the public broadcaster about payment related to reruns of the show.<\/p>\n

In her message, Rami said the required forms had already been completed and sent in, and that she is currently waiting for the payment to be processed.<\/p>\n

She wrote: \u201cOn this day, 19 May 2026 at 4pm, I, Rami Chuene, would like to state on record that I have received communication from the SABC telling me they will be paying me repeat fees for my work on Giyani: Land Of Blood<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rami further explained that she chose to make the information public so fellow performers would be aware that repeat fees are a legitimate entitlement for actors when their shows are broadcast again.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy am I telling you? So you know, my dear thespians, that this is what is truly due to us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The actress also expressed gratitude to the SABC for the decision and said she hopes other artists whose productions are repeated on television are receiving similar support.<\/p>\n

\u201cI appreciate this from the SABC and hope that all actors that have their shows repeated on TV are also getting their repeat fees. Thank you SABC.\u201d<\/p>\n
