VELE MANENJE RAVES ABOUT ON-SCREEN SON
The former DiepCity actress Vele Manenje took to her Instagram to welcome Sicelo Buthelezi, who portrays Tobias.
“I wanna take this particular moment to officially welcome my onscreen son @seekay_sa on @skeemsaam12.”
“You have walked into a huge story with so much intense moments and u have completely drowned yourself into telling the story with heart and transparency.”
“I can’t wait for people to see u transform and play Toby,” she says.
Buthelezi portrayed the character of Teddy in Mzansi Magic’s canned telenovela, Gomora before joining the SABC1 soapie.
The former Gomora actor portrays the role of Manenje’s on-screen son, Tobias “Toby” Maswahla in Skeem Saam.
Manenje plays Evelyn Maswahla, the deputy principal at Turfloop Highschool in the popular soapie.
Manenje revealed to The Citizen in 2021 that Evelyn hails from Ga-Mothiba and she’s “strange” when people first meet her.
“Hailing from Ga-Mothiba, Evelyn is a former schoolteacher who is intelligent and well spoken. She is also a zealous reader with a fondness for poetry and meets a man with whom she forms a deep, romantic connection,” the statement read.
