Generations Star Musa Ngema Reportedly Fired for Bad Attitude and Pronunciation
Musa Ngema, a fan favourite and star of the SABC 1 soapie Generations, has reportedly been sacked due to strained relationships with cast and crew members, as well as his bad attitude and pronunciation. Ngema played the character Mazwi Moroka on the show, which has been a long-standing favourite among South African viewers.
Problems with Pronunciation and Bad Attitude
According to a reliable source, Ngema’s problems began when he was urged to improve his pronunciation and cease stuttering when speaking. He allegedly took offence to this and developed a bad attitude towards the cast and crew members. “When they tried showing him his weaknesses, he would be angry,” the source said.
