After being part of five great seasons of Mzansi Magic’s popular telenovela, The Queen, Loyiso MacDonald is leaving the telenovela to pursue other endeavors. He plays the composed character of Kagiso Khoza who is affectionately known as ‘’Sgaqagaqa’’.

“MacDonald has entertained our viewers over the past five seasons and over the years many of them have fallen in love with his character. As Mzansi Magic, we would like to thank him for his contribution and wish him well in his future plans . It is always sad when a talent leaves a show. However, that is the nature of the business. It also means we are a platform that grows individuals to be more daring and more explorative,” says Nomsa Philiso, the Director of Local Entertainment Channels at M-Net.
