Idols SA has been riding a wave in Mzansi after revealing that they will replace Unathi Nkayi and Randall Abrahams for a new panel of judges. The reality singing competition Idols SA introduced Thembi Seete, JR and Somizi Mhlongo as the judges of its 18th season. The show’s viewers were not impressed with the decision as they were used to seeing Somizi, Unathi and Randall as their judges.
With all the pressure the new set of judges managed to impress Mzansi, it’s now fair to say that they have filled the big shoes. As Mzansi is getting along with Idols SA’s new judges, the former judge Unathi Nkayi is now stalking Thembi Seete, who replaced her on the show.

Unathi came to Thembi Seete’s post and placed her comment, which got Mzansi talking. Many assume that Unathi is jealous of Thembi hence stalking her every move.
Comment from Unathi:
AWUMHLE TheyThey💛 I hope you’re having fun my love♥️
Mzansi reacts to Unathi’s Comment on Thembi Seete’s post
Unathi’s comment on Thembi Seete’s post received mixed reactions from Mzansi. Fans noticed that Unathi is desperate, and she hopes she gets her job back. Another comment commented:
Are you really happy she is on Idols, or you’re stalking her? Mami, you need to accept that you and Idols SA are history and move on with your life.
While others were happy that Unathi is supporting Thembi seete:
Ladies are supporting each other, and we are winning. The highest level of maturity
Unathi was fired from Idols in January 2022, and she confirmed her exit on her Twitter. Judging from her comment when she exited Idols, Unathi wasn’t ready to kiss goodbye to the show, but fate decided otherwise. Taking to Instagram, she said:
Oh man! Thank you for your love South Africa and our beautiful continent of Africa. Please allow me to honour you. You have been kind, loving and deeply invested. Truly the real energy and heartbeat of a wonderful wave of hope and dreams coming true on Idols and as you do that, you have made my dreams come true too. THANK YOU.
To every contestant who stood in front of us. From the ones brave enough to share with us their hopes. I don’t take lightly the act of doing that for the world to see. An honour I will always hold. Thank you for trusting me as one of your judges. To those who unleashed a new level of my tears, heavily pregnant with Baby Idols garnering for Wooden Mic, thank you for the laughter and joy…
