“Skeem Sam Must Go”- Viewers Are Angry After What Happened On Last Night’s Episode

For the longest time now, people have been complaining about “skeem sam.” They claim that the story always makes it seem like poor people can never be successful since something bad always happens when they get a breakthrough. Look at Leshole Ma itself; he was a very highly motivated learner who has a special talent, but because he’s poor, he never got a breakthrough, and he has been suffering ever since. But if you look at the rich boys, like the Maputla boys, their way to success was very easy because their family is rich.


 

 

 

Many people have been complaining that they should change their storyline and give poor people some breakthrough. The reason why is because a story must be motivating; it shouldn’t send a bad message to the viewer or make them feel like they can’t make it in life, just like some people are failing. Another example is Zamo. He was a genius, but there’s always something bad happening when he gets a breakthrough.

On last night’s episode, Koloj went to Jodi to attend an interview that was going to change his life. We all know that the boy has been through so much drama, poverty, and losing parents. We were all excited that finally he’s going to get a breakthrough; even his family was excited; they were happy for him that he’s finally bringing a change at home. Unfortunately, things didn’t go well in Johannesburg. He took a taxi that was full of thugs, and they robbed him of everything; they even took the clothes he was wearing and left him naked.
