Intriguingly, Sibiya will embody a character that closely resembles his real-life personality. He will portray a radio luminary who becomes a part of the fictitious K-Mash FM, playing a crucial role in the show’s narrative. “I will be playing a role that comes naturally to me,” Sibiya confided to Zimoja.
