‘Honestly speaking, people will always have complaints because everyone has opinions about how the story should have been told.’

Season 2 of the hit series Shaka ilembe is set to premiere on Sunday, 15 June, at 8pm on Mzansi Magic.

We had an opportunity to chat to musician and actor Jabulani Hadebe, also known as Sjava, who played a role in season one of the show as King Dingiswayo.

King Dingiswayo is an important historical figure who was the leader of the Mthethwa Paramountcy and played a crucial role in the early life of Shaka Zulu.

“People don’t understand that just because we played roles on ‘Shaka’ means we know everything about his story,” said Sjava.

“Honestly speaking, people will always have complaints because everyone has opinions about how the story should have been told.

“That’s why so many shows based on his story exist. You can even make your own if you want, depending on how you think the story went,” Sjava said.
