This is an inspiring story by him....Its good to see people on the telly doing something ordinary and positive not selling a dream to people.....Dube is real, a real father and husband with real life issue. I respect you my brother...He also does good theatre, I remember I saw a play by him last year. Very well done..Keep up the good work. *high five*

An all round nice guy. Still down to earth and not egotistical.
He is more of an actor than a comedian.

Dube, who came to Johannesburg from Kimberley in 1997 ...

Liar , the man`s been around Jozi from as far back as - maybe even before - 1991 when I first met him during my days as theater practitioner . You must learn to listen Zenoyise .

I find him funny when selling policies with his guardian (Lilian Dube) then in his so called comedy shows.
