Kope Makgae, known as Tswyza, announced he was leaving SABC1's Generations: The Legacy after eight years of being part of the production.
Many may not know that the character was not meant to stay as long as he did, but the way Mrekza became a hit with the audiences prompted producers to ask Makgae to stay on.
He told News24 that "it can only be God" who made the next chapter in his life possible - in that, after leaving what he called 'home' for almost eight years, he landed a role on e.tv's latest prime-time telenovela, Isiphetho: Destiny.
