Ntombela was undoubtedly one of the most hated characters in Mzansi after David Genaro. He played the role of a gangster called Chicken so well that fans were convinced he is the character when they bumped into the actor in the street. The 35-year-old actor told Sowetan in an interview that hes a reformed gangster in real life, just like his character. The character is a walk in the park. Growing up wasnt easy because I grew up under the umbrella of gangsters. People used to be afraid of me because of the people I used to hang out with and the things I used to do. The actor also played the role of a loan shark named Skhali on The Queen. 3. NAOMI FISCHER PLAYED BY MOSHIDI MOTSHEGWA  Moshidi Motshegwa as Naomi Fischer.
