According to a statement from eTV, Kinati is a con artist.
"With a dual personality, one as a shrewd hustler who loves smoking and drinking and the other as a naïve, respectful child, Kinati thrives on deception."
"He targets unsuspecting victims like Thenjiwe and the Sokhulu family, charming them out of their belongings. His motto, 'If you've got it, use it to make money', captures his amusing yet relentless pursuit of financial gain."
Meanwhile, Omdala shared: "Joining 'Isitha: The Enemy' is a huge milestone for me.
Acting has always been a dream, and stepping into Kinati's shoes is both thrilling and challenging. Kinati is unpredictable; he's charming one moment and dangerous the next. I can promise viewers that he's bringing nothing but fire, drama and chaos into Thenjiwe's life."
As the plot unfolds, viewers will witness evolving relationships and escalating tensions.
In the latest episode, Nomsa triumphs in clearing Nolitha's name, yet chooses not to forgive her, believing Nolitha belongs with Chuma, especially given Chuma's involvement in Jobe's demise.
Meanwhile, a thread of compassion weaves through Thenjiwe as she forms a bond with the seemingly innocent Kinati, inviting him to lunch.
In contrast, Martha makes a fierce return with a striking new look, mingling with the drama as Rebs seeks to untangle the complicated secrets surrounding Kamavovo and Langa.
Tensions heighten when Velaphi refuses to attend Martha's party at Rebs' home, embroiled in the conflict surrounding Nolitha.
Amid these swirling dynamics, a passionate moment shared between Solomzi and Nandi further complicates the already intricate web of relationships in the show.
