Petition to bring Malefu back to 'The River' gains traction

Image: had not been renewed, allegedly after a dispute with management, a petition to bring the star back to the show is gaining momentum.petition, which was started by Thanduxolo Mantakana, has so far amassed 370 signatures, with more than half of these signatures coming in the last week alone.

"None of us are interested in behind-the-scenes politics. Moshidi is a great actress and her character Malefu was too central to be written out for no reason. She was prepared to stay for another season and a commitment was made to that effect, only to be retracted later," the description for the petition reads.The RiverAnother called for an end to the"suffering" fans have been experiencing since her departure.

But fans were distracted from their crusade for a few minutes on Tuesday when Brenda Ngxoli's character on the show, Dambisa, got into a fight with Zweli.

So true, totally agree , she deserves to be back on the river, but on the other hand being dismissed like that it wont be as pleasant and comfortable for her, i know she is a professional but she also needs to be happy on set

No story for her? Mbali is like furniture... Tumi is just there roaming around. wow

Bring bk malefu....

Bring back Malefu...

I can understand the plight but I have a problem with a person may think he/she is bigger than the production. Nobody is indispensable. I believe that the production team made an effort to resolve the issues and I'm sure they were forced to go this route.

And they still keep poor actors like Lindani

Yes. Internal politics not withstanding the head honchos need to do a serious soul searching. Shona Ferguson's character Jerry Maake was killed off and resurrected twice now in TheQueenMzanzi, what stops the executives from resurrecting Malefu?

TshisaLIVE well that show business for you

Lp0

She was released because she is better than all of them, combined, including the Fergusons. Typical Africans with jealous, we always victimized our own

I just stopped watching the River

I stopped watching because it lacked ''that thing''...she was soo good that she made you overlook the not so good acting by some of her co stars and now that she is gone only Dimpho is taking trying to take one for the team... you can tell she was under her wing.

Like i also dont understand why she had to go for no reason nje.

Shona_Ferguson & Connie_Ferguson pls do something TheRiver1Magic is not the same without Malefu

I don’t like how she treated Tumi though guys

Yaaas!!!!

The producers must tell the truth about what happened to Moshidi. 😕

Malefu number 1

The way she left, I knew something was wrong. PhathuMakwarela We want Malefu back TheRiver1Magic is not the same without her 😭

After her exit I decided not to watch the River anymore!

There’s a reason why they chose her and it’s cos she’s talented and 1 of the best in this industry but for you guys to say she was treated badly haai le worse shame ele gore ntse le sa bale gore what hpnd gore a tsamaye

The show is less interesting without her

MatawanaMol I see no difference. Still enjoying the show.

Bring Malefu back

Miss her

It's no longer the same without her. Try and solve the issues and just bring back the pure talent. Asseblief tog

Bring Malefu back PhathuMakwarela

I agree

Bring Malefu back already, it’s not the same without her

There are often too many rivers to cross in such matters. And lots of drama...

It's so boring without her TheRiver1Magic

Please give me directions to this petition

Bring back Malefu.
