MaThawala back in the mix

MaThwala is Maphalala’s cunning sister-in-law and the second wife of Maphalala’s younger brother, Bhekumuzi.

Describing her character, Nzuza said: “MaThwala is two-faced, not nice, and her husband is also not a nice person. Their plan has been a hostile takeover of umuzi kaMaphalala (Maphalala’s home) through ukuhlugumeza uMaZulu (mistreating MaZulu).”
