South African actor Bonko Khoza recently shared a heartfelt appreciation post for his fellow actor, Thembinkosi Mthembu, celebrating his talent and impact on the industry. It seems some of the actors' industry colleagues and fans could not agree more.
On 28 July, Bonko took to his Instagram account and shared a series of pictures accompanied by a lengthy post to loudly and proudly state that he was Thembinkosi's biggest fan. He noted that he always mentions it when the two cross paths.
The Heart of the Hunter star added that he knew the world would witness something special when Thembinkosi took on the role of Mabutho in the multi-award-winning telenovela The River, which was cancelled after viewers got tired of the dragged-out plots.
"You’ve moved from strength to strength, role to role, leaving a legacy of truth, power, and undeniable talent in every performance."

Khuphuka lapho Mvelase. We see you. We celebrate you. And we’re right behind you."
Thembinkosi, who is yet to be verified on the social media platform, responded:
"Khoza mfwethu. Ngyabonga."

I salute you, @bonkokhoza. @thembinkosi__mthembu, I watched season one of Shaka iLembe, and you didn’t just work and act in that. No, you lived it. That made me subscribe to Showmax, and I repeatedly started watching Outlaws. God bless you kings."
