South African actor Linda Nxumalo has become a household name because of his role as Sokalizwe in House of Zwide.

Linda Nxumalo as Soka in House of Zwide

Soka is a financially challenged university graduate who is finding it hard to land a job in South Africa’s swamped job market. This makes him vulnerable to several scams like Bra Carter’s illegal business under the guise of giving him a job and almost lands him in jail. His kind heart landed him a girlfriend he assumed was out of his league. However, the search for a reliable source of income also lands him in trouble. He can not afford to pay for dates with his girlfriend.

Currently, Soka is on the hunt for a job and living with his cousins Nomsa and Shoki, struggling to make ends meet. His biggest challenge now is Ona’s struggles with her family and the history of her biology. He is finding it hard getting Onalerona to open up to him and share how she feels about knowing her father after 20 years of believing another man was her father.

This is Linda Nxumalo’s salary in House of Zwide.

Soka is part of the recurring members of the cast and gets paid handsomely for his role in the telenovela. The actor is rumoured to take home an estimate of R40 000 each month. This amount changes from month to month depending on the number of scenes that the actor is featured in. However, for an upcoming actor with not a lot of experience, Linda’s compensation is impressive.

Nxumalo’s business empire

The actor has come from humble beginnings before he was a famous actor. After graduating from Varsity, Linda’s first job as a struggling artist was as a waiter. Still, after several months he got cast in Isithembiso for a minor role of a robber. After joining a good talent management company, he got the first role of his career. House of Zwide is now his second role as an actor and the most significant one as an actor so far in his career.
