This Zahara story should be turned into a daily "isidingo", Sbu as Barker Heinz, Nhlanhla as Mrs Sibeko and her husband as Mr Sibeko, Zahara as Cherel, or Nandos must make a ad

how about they look at poverty alleviation and the impact of e-tolling instead of snooping into people's private business.

Come on now people, let the Eastern Cape government asssist Zahara's family if they wish so. I get the sense that this TS Records is like Deathrow Records,the then Tupac and Dre record label. They reap off artist's royalties and make them sign ridiculous contracts. Zahara must take this opportunity being offered by Ladysmith Black Mambazo,some lucky spells don't last forever. This TK Nciza is like Suge Knight of Mzansi with this Mafikizolo Biatch.

I like this Mtukane family, this is what a family should do. If you see something is not going well with your sibling action it right away. I wish there can be a lawyer who can sue TS record 1 million. On top of that Zahara still enjoy all her royalities in full. From there Sbu le "Bhuti TK" can learn how to treat an artist.
