Scores of tweeps have called this Metro FM’s move to rehire Mhlongo as desperate and a calculative measure. Evidently, Mhlongo has a large fan base and even though he continues to remain not everyone’s cup of tea. But without a doubt, he will still bring in numbers.
“Wow the numbers must be really bad for them to go this low. This is a really desperate move. There are many talented pure radio people at Metro who have done a great job standing in that slot before and during DJ Sabi’s time. They went for fame Vs radio talent.” wrote Luzouko Mpohla
