THE announcement that Bakwena Productions will produce the SABC's new telenovela Pimville has intensified the conflict between the production company and the South African Background Actors Guild (SABAG).

The series is set to replace the long-running Muvhango, but the move has raised significant concerns regarding the production house's past professional conduct.

The SABAG chairperson, Louis Setabole, expressed his disappointment in an open letter to the SABC. He criticised their collaboration with Bakwena Productions, citing the production company’s alleged history of “questionable business practices”.

“Our concerns arise from Bakwena Productions’ history of questionable business practices, particularly their failure to fulfil financial obligations to cast, crew and background actors," read the letter posted on Facebook.
