The popular SABC1 youth soapie Skeem Saam is turning up the drama with a powerful storyline that has viewers completely hooked.
On the latest episode, the show introduced a well-known community activist named Mr Moloto, who has been brought in to help Clement Letsoalo (Vusi Leremi) deal with his severe drug addiction.
In January 2026, the young man's secret life was finally revealed after his family learned that he had been using drugs right under their noses.
Things have become incredibly difficult for his family, and they have reached a point where they simply could not handle the situation on their own anymore. In what looks like their absolute last hope, they decided to call in Mr Moloto to step in, sit Clement down, and stage a serious intervention before he completely ruins his life and his future.

On 26 May, a snippet of Moloto and his guards' arrival surfaced online, in which they surprised Clement, sleeping fully clothed in jeans and sneakers in bed. With his famous catchphrase, "Wakey wakey, sleepyhead," Moloto shook Clement awake and immediately ordered him up, leaving the disoriented young man visibly shaken.
"Such a handsome young man sleeping in jeans and sneakers. What has happened to you?"
Clement soon takes a stand, demanding that Moloto and his men leave his bedroom before he involves the police. He soon turns his attention to his mom, Skhoko and grandmother, MaNtuli (played by Millicent Mashile and Dieketseng Mnisi), who swore the intervention was for his own good, only for him to accuse them of being hypocrites.
Fans were immediately hooked by the intense scene, praising Moloto’s commanding presence and strict "tough love" approach. The dramatic entrance sets up a highly emotional road to recovery, leaving viewers eager to see if his tough methods will finally help Clement.
