Nokuzola’s character was not a fan favourite when she first hit our screens as she was a nosy security guard that was always up in arms with what was happening at Gauteng University. We were introduced to her when Kwaito and Tbose went to further their studies.

When she was moved to Turfloop University, viewers were worried that Sis Ouma’s character was gonna be saying goodbye but as luck would have it, her character grew. She became MaNtuli’s friend (in a way that nobody quite understands) and she was always there for MaNtuli (sort of).

We saw less of her at school and more of her at home. She particularly infuriated viewers when she was trying to push Koloi towards studying to be a security guard when he had greater dreams. Koloi’s mother had died and all Koloi had was her. She was a mother to him and these days, she was doing quite well as a mother.

Another Skeem Saam actor that passed was Leshole’s onscreen father, Big Boy Mabitsela who was played by renowned entertainer Charles Maja. Charles won the hearts of many viewers with his funny character on the show. Avid viewers of the show described him as a talented actor, who was always passionate about his craft. Big Boy’s character was not killed on the show but rather moved to a different place.

We will miss Sis Ouma on the show. Condolences to everyone that knew and loved Nokuzola Mlengana.
