"Very good show, and yes, it is the best show on TV in a long time, though I wish Zoleka had borrowed Thumeka's tears for yesterday's episode. She tried, but the tears weren't coming."

"Pure beautiful storytelling."
@EzamaCirha commented:
"Plus no dragging of any storyline, pure beauty and very good entertainment."
@EtherealWater replied:
"I hope they start exploring other characters. I don't remember seeing Lukhanyo's wife, Thulani's home, or Linda's life. I'm so interested in them."
@kheswa_lee stated:
"I literally cried with them; that was painful to watch. The emotions felt real. Shout out to Ayakha and Lunathi, that was a stellar performance."
@masindiday responded:
"But very unfair to Zoleka; she's never had time to breathe. Always something comes up. In life, there are good and bad times. Hay cha."
@TholisoN shared:
"I am so mad at myself because I never watched it. Since My Brother's Keeper, I never watched TV again."

SA reacts to Zoleka's mansion
In a previous report from Briefly News, Inimba fans were concerned about their fan-favourite character, Zoleka, who is married to Hlathi.
It was revealed that they are married in community of property, and she might lose half of her estate to her estranged husband after filing for divorce. According to the story, Zoleka's estate is worth over R100 million, which means Hlathi might walk away a millionaire. "Zoleka’s estate is worth R200 million? Hlathi is about to become wealthy moes if Zoleka doesn’t successfully hide her assets," and X user wrote.
