The SABC’s biggest radio station, Ukhozi FM – which celebrated bagging 8 million listeners in October 2021 – made some changes to some of its biggest shows, and today 01 Apr.2022 is the big day for UKhozi FM and its listeners’ because all the changes started today.
In a media statement released mid-March the national broadcaster announced that the station will switch up its daytime and weekend line-up. On this will see presenters such as Khathide ‘Tshatha’ Ngobe and Durban Gen actress Zimiphi ‘Zimdollar’ Biyela in new timeslots.
Award-winning presenter and MC, Tshatha Ngobe, is making a return to the drive time show from 15:00 – 18:00. Following some damning claims he made in 2020 about the station’s infamous ‘song of the year’, the presenter was moved to the graveyard and weekend slots as “punishment” in 2021. Now, however, he is back in the driver’s seat and will be re-joined by Selby ‘Selbyonce’ Mkhize
Daytime radio host Bheka ‘Beekay’ Mchunu is making a much-anticipated return to Sigiya Ngengoma – which is the Saturday maskandi show hosted from 09:00-12:00. Mchunu will take over from Zimdollar who will now co-host the daytime show every weekday with Sifiso ‘King Sifiso’ Sibiya.
Ukhozi FM is also moving into the TV world with a vodcast show. The show, which is said to air on Mondays to Fridays, will be hosted by Siyabonga Mhlongo.
Nhlanhla 'Lux' Dlamini who is the leader of Operation Dudula appears in the Roodepoort Magistrate's Court in Johannesburg, 28 March 2022, for a house breaking case. The leader of the surveillance group Operation Dudula has been granted bail of R1 500 by the Roodepoort Magistrate’s Court. Dlamini appeared before the court following his last week arrest on charges of venomous damage to property, theft and burglary. The charges are in connection with an incident that happened this month in which he and Operation Dudula members ransacked Soweto resident Victor Ramerafe’s home in search of drugs, they were apparently acting on tip-offs that Ramerafe’s home was in fact a drug den, but no drugs were found. Dlamini’s bail conditions states that he is not allowed to make contact with the complainant and he has also been requested to hand over his passport. The case was postponed to 27 May 2022.
