SKYZ Metro FM has announced the departure of yet another popular presenter, Manurse Ndlovu who joins six other staff members who have parted ways with the Bulawayo-based radio station.

The MC and award-winning presenter was popular with listeners and her departure will surely be felt as she was part of the first radio personalities when the station went on air, eight years ago.

She joins part of the mass exodus of staff including popular news reader Kundaimidzo Shamuyarira who announced his own departure earlier today.

Their departure though the station says “do not in any way affect our commitment to our valued audience and advertisers,” will shake the station as presenters ‘move with their audiences’ should they join rival stations.

Listeners follow their favourite presenters when they move which gives rival stations the edge.

“Skyz Metro FM would like to announce that we have recently experienced staff changes, following the departure of a number of our staff members who have moved on to other opportunities. We would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their contributions and wish them the very best in their future endeavours.

“We are proud and grateful for the efforts of the following staff members who have been with the station since its inception and have contributed greatly to where the station is today: Tafadzwa Mukome, Manurse Ndlovu, Bonakaliso Mlotshwa, Khayelihle Moyo, Kundaimidzo Shamuyarira, Shamiso Ncube, Njabulo Proud Moyo,” said the station in a press statement.

The station said it will continue with its programming and has already roped in new presenters to replace those who have left.

“We assure our listeners that we remain steadfast in delivering quality programming and providing a platform that entertains, educates, and informs. We remain committed to providing our listeners with the best radio programming,” said the station management.

Former Ghana President, John Dramani Mahama has stressed the need for African leaders to help the youth to realise their dreams through the use of their talent.

Speaking at the 2023 Korea-Africa Business Summit, the leader of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) argued that it is the duty of African leaders to help unlock the untapped potential of the youth on the continent.

“Latent talent and skills are abundant in our young people. There are many who, despite the lamentable situation, come through with impressive feats and achievements. These point to untapped potential, which must be our duty as leaders to unlock and unleash,” John Dramani Mahama said.

In his address at the Summit, the Ghanaian politician also made a passionate plea to the Korean government to assist young innovators and entrepreneurs in Africa to break the chains of unemployment.

“Our young people must see a much brighter future ahead, and they are willing to put in the shift to make it a reality.

“Korea can help us nudge our young innovators and entrepreneurs to realize their dreams and extricate themselves from the unemployment trap,” John Dramani Mahama said.

At the two-day summit of the 2023 Korea-Africa Business Summit, John Dramani Mahama engaged in several activities.

The summit coincided with the 2023 commemoration of Africa Day.
