Siyanda Maphumulo the 8th SATMA award finalist on the best indigenous comedian category; is a young renowned stand-up comedian based in Durban.

His passion for arts, especially comedy started in high school as he was telling jokes as a hobby to his peers back in Mandeni, KwaZulu-Natal; this later on grew to a career 2009 when he was in tertiary. Siyanda is now one of the regulars in the well known comedy show 99% Zulu Comedy.

The ever so witty Siyanda is currently co-writing a sitcom based on brotherhood of homeless people. His genuine humour is based on ridiculous observation of life as publically reviewed and described by Duma ka Ndlovu who is the director of Muvhango. Even though to some Siyanda is seen as a ground breaker but his unique intellectual comedy has earned him prominence in the South African stand-up comedy scene.

He was recently seen on Idols 2014 doing "imoto'entshontshimali". He performs both in IsiZulu and English. He performs in corporate events, weddings and other private ceremonies and also does program directing.

GRIFF has wanted to be a comedian since he was three years old where his mother use to set up the seniors in The Convalescent Homes where she worked, in an audience typesetting and let her son make sleeping and comatose old people laugh. So after working the Geriatric Circuit for a couple of summers his destiny was settled. Since then, that little funny boy with the faith of a PLANET has made a name for himself as one of the leading comedians and On-Air Personalities in the Country by headlining across North America (including Canada), New Zealand, The U.K. and Africa.


With his quick wit and unsurpassed knowledge for sports news, “GRIFF” took sports took sports to the ‘next level’ with his comedic twist on athletes and their stories. In 1999 he received Georgia’s Sportcaster of the Year Award and in 2004 “Street Skillz”, a program he provided the color commentary for was nominated for an EMMY.


Ultimately, GRIFF is a Comedian, an On-Air Personality, an Author, an Actor, a Motivational Speaker, a Daddy, an EMMY nominated Sportscaster and a man who puts Jesus Christ ahead of all men all wrapped into one.
