Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. With the show being all about unexpected twists and turns, the host, Lawrence Maleka, urged viewers to tune in to channel 198 after the launch show for Biggie’s immunity surprise.
Previously speaking at the media briefing, the host was thrilled to be back.
“I’m excited about this season; it will be amazing. It will be fun, and I’m happy to be back. I took a hiatus, and now I’m back on screen again. I’m looking forward to diving in and doing the show,” said Maleka.
Mzansi Magic said the new season will be a whole new ball game, and audiences should keep their eyes glued to the screens. It was also announced there would be no shower hour this season.
“Our audiences know certain things but don’t necessarily want to see. And because many families watch this, and we all know that families could be ugogo (grandmother), the mother, and the kids, kids do not necessarily go to bed at 19:00 or 20:00. It can get a little awkward in the house,” said Shirley Adonisi, Director of Local Entertainment Channels.
Adonisi added that they had been heavily criticised for the segment.
“We got a lot of negative feedback around that to say ‘we understand that it’s a 24-hour show, but this part we do not want to see’.”

“S’ya Mosha represents what I stand for: Disrupting the status quo and just infiltrating spaces. I am a disruptor because I always challenge the status quo. I look at things and think, ‘I’m not going to take it as it is.’ Well, most of the time. I’m going to challenge it, make it my own and make it fly.”
