“I Speak 5 SA Official Languages”
Television actress and presenter Ntando Duma, has not even made her much-anticipated debut on The Queen Mzansi yet, but there are already some growing concerns on how she landed her role.

The former Rhythm City actress has joined the soapie, and she will portray the character of Mpho, who is the daughter of legendary actor Rapulana Seiphemo. As soon as Mzansi learned about the news some questioned whether she knows how to speak Sesotho or Setswana.

Whilst it is still not yet confirmed on whether her character will be Sotho or Setswana speaking, a tweep said she is stressing about “Mpho”, who doesn’t speak Setswana or Sesotho.

Instead of clapping back, the actress handled the concern with ease and said she speaks 5 official SA languages. Yaass, talk about teaching people to mind their own business.

Tweeps reacted to her response.
