On his Facebook page, Zungu wrote, “Greetings. I would like to apologise to all those who find the role that I’m playing as Malusi in the new telenovela Mother of All inappropriate… I filmed the show before I became a pastor. As a creative, I was invited and I played the role.”
But Zungu didn’t stop there. In a bid to quell any further controversy, he addressed the topic of money. “To all those who say I love money, yes I do love money, and there is nothing wrong with that. Yes, I got paid to play in the story.”
