Kwa Baba Teasers: Mhlaba Becomes CEO of Mkhize Logistics
Mhlaba’s rise to the top of Mkhize Logistics changes the balance of power after MaMbokazi fires his father, Dumisani.
Last updated: 22 September 2026
The power struggle inside the Mkhize family has reached another major turning point on Kwa Baba, with Mhlaba announcing that he is the new CEO of Mkhize Logistics after his father, Dumisani, is stripped of his position.
The development comes as the battle for control of Mkhize Logistics becomes one of the biggest storylines on the Mzansi Magic telenovela.
According to the September 2026 episode schedule from DStv, the fight over the company reaches a major turning point in Episode 80, when MaMbokazi strips Dumisani of his power. The following episodes continue exploring the fallout, including Dumisani’s attempt to regain his position and Mhlaba’s struggle to prove himself.
Mhlaba Is the New CEO of Mkhize Logistics
Mhlaba’s announcement changes the dynamics inside the Mkhize family.
After MaMbokazi fires his father, Mhlaba steps forward and takes control of Mkhize Logistics, placing himself directly in the middle of the family’s ongoing battle for power.
For Mhlaba, the position represents more than a business promotion. It puts him in the position of having to prove that he can lead while dealing with the consequences of his father’s fall from power.
The move also deepens the tension between Mhlaba and Dumisani, whose relationship has already been pushed to breaking point throughout September.
DStv’s September teasers describe the conflict between the pair as an increasingly bitter power struggle, with Mhlaba repeatedly challenging his father’s authority.
What Happened to Dumisani?
Dumisani’s grip on Mkhize Logistics begins to collapse after his confrontation with MaMbokazi.
In Episode 80, “You’re fired,” MaMbokazi strips Dumisani of his power as the battle for Mkhize Logistics reaches an explosive stage.
But losing his position does not mean Dumisani is ready to walk away.
The next episode sees his attempt to be reinstated as CEO backfire, while the following episodes continue to explore the consequences of losing his influence.
Dumisani’s fall therefore becomes an important part of Mhlaba’s new challenge: taking control of the company while his father continues to fight for relevance.
