Skeem Skaam fans had a good laugh in the latest episode and were treated to a fashion moment and non-stop drama, courtesy of the talented Macks Papo.

Marothi Maphuthuma makes a spectacle of himself

The drama in Turfloop has erupted after fan-favourite, Marothi Maphuthuma, returned to Skeem Saam.

Played by Macks Papo, the famous actor's comeback guarantees never-ending drama, plot twists, and conflicts between him and the rest of the Turf bunch. And Monday, 23 June 2025's episode was no different.

The charismatic Mr Maphuthuma was seen confronting Sergeant Babeile, and things quickly took a left turn, leading Marothi to spit venom at the poor Sargent.

However, Maphuthuma's confrontation and fierce character are not the only things that had viewers glued to their screens.

Netizens are talking about the actor's unconventional three-piece suit and signature scarf, which, coupled with his passionate performance, have made Skeem Saam even more worthwhile.

Twitter (X) user shireenhlalele shared a video showing Marothi's outfit:
