This is very sad.
This guy was one of the South African actors I thought were gonna blow up internationally. He deserved more than Saftas. He deserved Oscar’s🏆
He had a stellar performance in Savage Beauty and Mis-education. Plus many others. #RIPMphoSebeng pic.twitter.com/0OuHM4C7Mf— Nelkon Nsamba (@samba_nelly23) May 6, 2024

Mpho really entertained us and delivered well on his Neo character on Ring of Lies, that was when he won me over as a fan.
