He said:

"I don't know what is happening. I go to the auditions, but I don't get callbacks. I don't know why I'm being sidelined like this. People are still celebrating me when they see me. But it's hard now in this industry. Maybe people want to talk good things about me when I'm dead, but they're failing to help me now that I'm still alive."

The former Gomora actor further shared that he has some acting projects that he has invented but is still waiting for funding and that he will never give up on acting as that is his talent and passion.

Msibi said:

"I have acting projects that I invented but I'm still looking for funding. I also visit schools to motivate using comedy. I hope that I will get the funding. That won't only help me, but others whose doors have been closed on them. The situation is sad and painful."
