GALLERY: Mqoqi is injured in the Zulu brothers’ latest heist

If you’ve been watching the latest episodes of The Wife, you’ll know that the war between the Majolas and the Zulu family is heating up.

Update: Want to know more? Watch the behind-the-scenes special The Wife: Behind the Veil. Plus, binge all of Season 1 and 2 of The Wife on Showmax.

In the latest episodes, 10 to 12, the Majolas don’t waste time in putting their scheme of vengeance into action. They have taken a serious hit from the Zulu brothers, have lost members of their family, and are out for blood.

They stalk and place trackers on all the Zulu taxis to keep tabs on them, eventually finding out that the Zulus are planning another heist. In a turn of events, the Majolas hijack the heist and there is a violent shootout.

Bullets are flying, blood is shed, and Mqoqi is shot. The Zulus flee the scene to get Mqoqi medical assistance. Will he survive or not? That’s the big question.

Nkosana and Qhawe and the calm before the storm; they do not know what the Majolas have planned.

Sambulo, the quiet brother and the enforcer, is ready for anything, but he does not know what lies ahead.

The Zulus successfully pull off the heist, but as they get away, they are intercepted by two Majola taxis carrying gun-wielding occupants. The Zulu are trapped in a hail of bullets.

This is Mqoqi’s first heist with his brothers and he has been shot. The Zulus flee the scene to get Mqoqi help. Will he survive or not? And will his big brothers forgive themselves for getting him hurt?
