Hey, big tender!

A business deal goes bad when Nkaba’s past sins come back and leave a bloody mess.

- LEZANNE JANSE VAN RENSBURG

Christmas is just around the corner but villainous Jack Mabaso (Vusi Kunene) may not survive long enough to enjoy the festivities. And it’s all thanks to the constant thorn in his side Walter Nkaba (Nimrod Nkosi, host of lifestyle show Breaking New Ground, 2009-now). Shady politician Nkaba has returned in the hopes of grabbing a lucrative nuclear power tender, but Nimrod says that his character can’t do it alone and he turns to the one person who has all the connections. “He needs Jack to set up or find a viable shell company and it’ll be all systems go. They could make billions out of this deal.”

CHRIS CROSS

With just two days to put together a tender bid, the frenemies get to work. But while they dot their i’s and cross their t’s, another tenderpreneur is lying in wait – and he’s livid. Chris (Mpumi Mpama, Walter in period drama The Road, 2015 ) has been double-crossed by Nkaba before. “Chris was convinced that this nuclear tender would be his,” says Nimrod, “but Nkaba didn’t think that Chris had what it takes to close this deal and decided to work with Jack.”
