The debut of Inimba struck a nerve with viewers as Zoleka’s perfect life crumbled in moments. The battle between love, motherhood, and career ambition left the audience divided and desperate for more. Here are four standout moments that got Mzansi talking: 

1. Hlathi’s demands 

Zoleka’s husband, Hlathi, rocked the nation when he insisted she resign from her job to focus solely on having more children. Many viewers were stunned by his traditional expectations and how the entire family backed him up without hesitation.

2. A life changing promotion 

Just as Zoleka was processing her husband's ultimatum, she received incredible news. She received a major promotion that would require her to relocate to the USA for three years. The timing couldn’t have been worse, and the pressure intensified.

3. A heartbreaking airport scene

In a desperate bid to choose her future, Zoleka fled with her daughter, Qhawe. But her escape was cut short when Hlathi cornered her at the airport, took the baby, and banned her from ever seeing them again. Others sympathised with him, noting that Zoleka changed their plans without warning.

4. Thumeka's actions questioned

Thumeka, who was brought from the village to help with the baby, tipped off the family about Zoleka’s escape. But was she doing the right thing or is there something more sinister at play?

Here is what Mzansi had to say: 

Mzansi is split, should Zoleka have fought harder for her child, or was she right to choose her dreams? Watch her story unfold on Inimba, weekdays at 21:00.
