Johannesburg, January 2022- An old face returns to the city and in true DiepCity style, this old face comes with new drama. This month, the award winning telenovela welcomes a new lead character who goes by the name of Bafana.
Bafana comes back to Diepsloot after years of living in the fancy suburbs of Fourways with his father who is a renowned businessman, but weeks after his return he is caught up in a messy situation that proves the notion: three is a crowd. Viewers can expect to see Bafana’s debut appearance on episode 216, which will air on 31 January 2022.
Ntokozo “TK” Dlamini, who is a well-known South African Actor, Businessman, Television Personality and Social Public Figure, portrays Bafana’s thrilling character. Dlamini is best known for his role on Uzalo, where he portrayed the intense character, Mastermind Maphumulo. He can also be recognised from his appearance on 1 Magic’s The River.
“I am thrilled to be joining such a fast paced, exhilarating primetime show especially because I’ve been offscreen for a while now. “ Says Ntokozo TK Dlamini. He adds, “Joining DiepCity as Bafana will show viewers a different perspective to my craft as opposed to characters that I’ve portrayed before. Bafana loves the soft life but also enjoys the rush of Diepsloot, which makes this character even more interesting, it’s going to be quite a beautiful journey.”
