An executive from the SABC told Sunday World that instead of taking drastic measures of canning the telenovela, they were trying to remedy the situation.

“Yes, there are issues with Uzalo because of its dwindling numbers and the complaints we received from viewers who said the storyline was now boring. We urged the producers to come up with creative storylines to rescue the soapie because it was important to the SABC. Another thing we emphasized was that actors need to be paid decent salaries for their work,” said the executive to the publication.

The show got renewed for a new season and the SABC announced a 3-year agreement the show. Recently it added new face including Thembi Nyandeni,  Siyabonga Radebe, Omuhle Gela and etc.

The production has several new faces joining the show, and it is a great pleasure to work with this impressive talent. We are confident that our viewers are eager to continue experiencing authentic stories that represent their everyday realities in a way that resonates with them.” said Pepsi Pokane
