Vusi is 17/18 years old and the love-child of Edward and Thandaza. He’s grown up in a household of privilege and wealth. He has grown into a bit of rebellious child. He has his mother’s good looks, which makes him a hit with the young girls. He is also quite the popular kid in high school.
About the role of Busi Motsamai:
Busi is now 17 years old. She is Doobsie Mukwevho and James Motsamai’s daughter. She’s spent a better part of a year in Japan. She is the arch little schemer just like her mother, is sharp and street smart, and is now about to return home, tossing off phrases in Japanese to all and sundry to show how intellectually superior she is.
