South African actor Jacob Ntshangase has had the House of Zwide actors walking on thin ice in the past days on the hit fashion drama series. Seeing him take on his role as Mr Mavuso can have many fans assuming that he is a ruthless businessman in real life when he is not. Jacob Ntshangase is a lecturer when he is not working on either side of the camera in the entertainment industry business.
His role in House of Zwide
The actor debuted his role in House of Zwide last week with a role as the formidable business mogul Mr Mavuso who wanted to work with House of Zwide. Laz made sure they got room to talk business with the man and be in line to get an R100 million deal. However, Mavuso demands that Faith be scratched off from their business deal because of the state she is in and the accusations of what she did still in court.
The Zwide family is about to be divided as Funani wants this deal and Nkosi wants justice for his mother, and the two will not go hand in hand. Mavuso keeps standing his ground in his demands and won’t budge.
