Samkelo Ndlovu Announces Departure from Rhythm City After 7 Years

Samkelo Ndlovu has announced her departure from eTV soap Rhythm City.

Samkelo posted a long statement on Twitter breaking the news and explaining why she is leaving. She says that she tried leaving the show last year, but producers convinced her to stay a bit longer as they had just lost another star who was pivotal to the storyline.

The actress’ departure seems to be amicable, unlike some reported instances where producers had to drag off an actor, eg. Rami Chuene and the Fergusons’.

Samkelo has been with Rhythm City for seven years where she has been playing the character Lerato.

Rhythm City confirmed her departure with this statement.
