House Of Zwide Reaches Twilight Height

Neo (Thato Dithebe) and Ona (Nefisa Mkhabela) at Netflix 


House of Zwide, a South African soapie which began in 2021 is closing its curtains in this winter leaving a great chasm in the entertainment World especially for some of us who had the opportunity to mix and mingle with some of the Protagonists like Nefisa Tarisca Mkhabela who stars as Onalerona and Thato Dithebe ( Neo). The themes of love, hatred, culture and the comic relief of the soap became a reality after interacting with Neo and Ona who accepted to be identified with their casting roles as they are known on the small screen. They were humble and yielded to a short interview when we met at Netflix in Cape Town, South Africa two years ago. One thing notable was that some roles individuals play directly represent their hospitality or cruelty in real life. Nevertheless, it was thumbs up for Ona and Neo vis -a- vis other characters in other soaps I met. The exit of House of Zwide which is highly interpolated on the fashion business extravaganza is painful as it had become a daily Monday to Friday must watch and exposed the real South African lifestyle to Mzansi lovers who adore it from around the World on its 7pm time slot on Entertainment tv (e.t.v.). House of Zwide replaced the defunct Rhythm City and successfully filled in the gap which was left behind. However, directors of the soap in media reports defended the upcoming exit of the soap as best to avoid redundancy and effectiveness of the message of the main plot. Nonetheless, although doors are closing : House of Zwide managed to successfully edutain its viewers all over the world and succinctly championed fashion as a business endeavor that can bring bread and butter on the table.

To look closely with an intent to give an interpretation.

Learned clerics highlighted this as they scholarly interpreted the gospels and the bible . According to the Marcan Jesus in Mark chapter 13 normally refered to as the little apocalypse war events are a sign of the return of Jesus of which the present day wars in nations are happening and World War 3 rumours sound loud as every country gears for war. The United States military entered into Nigeria bombing areas in Sokoto state with Tomahawk missiles clinging on allegations that it was the Islamic stronghold that was killing Christians. These are the kind of wars that Jesus mentioned in Mark 13 and there are even more rumours of wars that are brewing as examplified by the overthrowing of Venezuela President by the United States.

      The Scandal cast It's a daily half an hour long, South African soap opera that runs from Monday to Friday screened on Entertainment television (Etv) station on 19.30 pm since September 2005. The necessity for choosing to do a synopsis on Scandal is because it is too realistic it vibes with the true events that take place in South Africa.
