Thabethe, who plays Nomvula, is a charismatic character with a larger-than-life personality.
She is a mother of two, a strong, dominant woman. But she finds her softness in her purpose of serving others. And that is how her relationship with Philemon blossomed. This was as she used her skills sewing church uniforms in her hometown. The move was to cater for the financial needs of the rising Giants soccer club.
She is big on family and bringing people together, and that is why she is seeking to re-unite her family. She does so by bringing her son and husband back together. However, she has a dangerous streak, as she is quick to draw the battle lines when necessary.
Last episode in January
Last month, Mzansi Magic announced that the last episode would be broadcast on January 31. The production for the season was concluded in June.
The star-studded telenovela features seasoned actors such as Jo-anne Reynecke, Sello Maake ka-Ncube and Tumisho Masha. Also Kwenzo Ngcobo, Kgomotso Christopher, Keitu Sankola, Thato Dithebe and Minki Malatji. Rethabile Mohapi, Thabo Malema and many more talented cast members are also featured.
“Firstly, to our cast, Tshedza Pictures, sponsors and advertisers, thank you for your ongoing support for Champions. And for your efforts in entertaining our Mzansi Magic viewers,” said the channel.
