Drama Unfolds: Duma Ka Ndlovu Arrested for Tax Fraud
Let’s rewind a bit. While Muvhango has often been in the headlines for various reasons, this time it’s not about unpaid staff—at least not this week. The show’s producer, Duma Ka Ndlovu, was arrested on Monday, October 30, over allegations of tax fraud. It seems the taxman has finally caught up with him.
According to reports, Ndlovu, along with two others suspected of aiding him, were taken into custody. These accomplices, referred to as "tax practitioners" by eNCA’s Heidi Giokos, are also facing charges. Ndlovu, who’s also behind the critically acclaimed show Queen Modjadji, is alleged to owe the South African Revenue Service (SARS) a staggering R25 million. The charges include violations of the Tax Administration Act. Thankfully for him, he was granted bail of R100,000.

The case will continue, and the public is watching closely.
