Radio Personality Msizi James is our next celebrity to join Katlego Maboe on the hot seat this Saturday, 18 May 2024, on SABC1 at 6 pm as he tries to win as much money as possible on behalf of an organization, The Character Company. Msizi is the second celebrity to choose The Character Company as his charity on Deal or No Deal Celebrity after Mo Flava walked away with R19,250.00 for the organization. Will Msizi walk away with more? Viewers will have to wait and see as he eliminates briefcases round after round, eliminating amounts of money from the money tree.
The Character Company’s goal is to help change South Africa’s current culture of violence and abuse through an initiative for boys by assisting them to grow into good men by instilling honourable values.
The Deal or No Deal gameshow makes dreams come true for ordinary South Africans to stand a chance to win in the battle against the stingy banker.
At the beginning of the show, one of the “Money Models” will hand over her briefcase, which will then be the one that will earn Msizi cash for the charity that he is playing for, The Character Company. Round after round, Msizi will eliminate boxes from the money tree with the hope that they contain the smallest amount of money. After each round, the show host, Katlego Maboe, receives a phone call from the mysterious banker, offering him a certain amount of cash in exchange for his briefcase. If he accepts the deal, the game is over. If not, he continues to play until he accepts the offer or leaves with the money inside the box initially given.
‘I have been a fan of Deal or No Deal for years, and when asked to come on the South African version, I was over the moon. I was even more excited when I found out that my chosen charity was The Character Company. I have worked with them in the past and was in awe of the work they do for the next generation of men in South Africa,’ – Msizi James
