In an alarming video shared on X, Mkhize once again pleaded for the public's intervention in her dispute with the owner, whom she alleges is forcing her out of her house.
Entertainment channel MDN News shared the video of the actress on its X account on Sunday, 30 November 2025.
"Actress Gcina Mkhize is pleading for assistance as the new owner of her auctioned home continues attempts to evict her and her family. Gcina Mkhize’s home was auctioned after she allegedly defaulted on her bond payments, but she maintains that the bank acted unlawfully in selling the property," said the channel.
South Africans respond to the clip
@Shady_Lurker said:
"But guys. If she stopped paying, for whatever reason. Whether willingly or because of affordability. However unfortunate that may be, her fighting the matter is not fair to the new owner or the bank. The bank is a business. Imagine if everyone just stopped paying and continued staying in properties? The bank would collapse - everyone loses."
@Judaeda3 commented:
"The bank needs to be called to order. This was done years ago, and most black families lost their bond. The bank must sit down with its client, explaining in detail and hearing their story before selling the house. The laws must change now, for whatever reason, this is unfair."
@screamerpiano wrote:
"In SA, banks typically follow a lengthy process before repossessing a property, including sending a Section 129 notice of default and attempting to negotiate with the homeowner. If the bank has indeed acted unlawfully, Gcina Mkhize may have grounds to contest the eviction."
@TheGeopol reacted:
"She should go build a shack in the township. The person who bought the house has every right to evict her. Celebrities must learn that they are not above the law."
@VirgoresDineo replied:
"She can do all the videos she wants, but in this case, it's bad. The house has already been sold, and I hope it covers the outstanding balance so that she doesn't carry more debt. Right now she is a tenant, and the owner has to go through the courts to evict her."
@TboozeSA wrote:
"Buying an occupied home at auction is asking for trouble. Basically, the buyer has been paying a bond for 2 years on a house he does not live in. Eviction court processes are time-consuming. You can't even force them out."
