CASSPER BOOTS AKA AS HEAD CHEF ON ‘THE BRAAI SHOW’

Entertainment commentator Phil Mphela confirmed that AKA still owned a 50% share of the show, with tweeps claiming Cassper would now be working for his rival.
‘AKA PLAYS NO ROLE IN SEASON TWO’
In a statement sent to IOL, Cake Media and MakhuduCom cleared the issue of AKA owning a 50% share of the show.
In a joint statement, the two companies revealed that they are the sole owners of The Braai Show and rapper AKA plays no role in season two of the show.
“As a business, the executive producers have a duty to deliver maximum value for viewers, broadcasters and advertisers. To this end, it is their mandate and prerogative to secure the most appropriate talent, evolve the show, secure funding and deliver a compelling product to audiences”
Although the statement did not reveal why AKA was no longer the host of The Braai Show, the issue was broadly addressed, mentioning that due to various reasons it had to pivot the show and take on a new host to ensure its success for the future.
