Fans LOVE Khaphela's TV return!

Joburg - In one of the greatest moments of this week so far (excluding the public holiday on Monday, obvs) Mike "Khapela" Mvelase made his return to our TV screens on e.tv's Matatiele. 

Mike, who played the role of bad ass Khapela on Generations, plays the role of a pastor on the new e.tv drama.

Matatiele, which tells the story of a modern day Romeo and Juliet, complete with a long-standing family feud between amaXhosa and abaSotho clans that dates back to the 18th century, received rave reviews on Twitter with many praising it as a show well worth the hype.  

But the biggest praise was reserved for the return of king Khapela, with many fans excited to see him return and amused by his new role.

One of our favourite tweets read: "@CyberGuarana: Khaphela preaching about Love, like he's still with Khethiwe #Matatiele. Done".

Welcome back, Chief.
