Fortune Combo Business Manager, Anthony Soglo, said ”Radio 2000 is blessed to have a team of passionate professional broadcasters and talent who understand the vision of being a listener centric station targeting our iYouth Endala listeners.

“We welcome our new talent and know that they fit our presenter profile who understand our target audience and will assist in further creating an environment for our commercial stakeholders to thrive. As part of our offering in the new radio year, we look forward to the launch of our brand-new bespoke Radio 2000 website and APP to keep us even closer to our listeners”.

DJ SBU ALSO JOINS THE STATION

Radio 2000 will also see the return of DJ Sbu – real name Sibusiso Leope, to the airwaves. One of the most revered personalities in South Africa, DJ Sbu had taken a break from radio to focus on his businesses and podcast.

However, after almost a decade away, the Lengoma hitmaker will be hosting a new breakfast show together with the current team of Nathi Ndamase as co-presenter and Lelo Mzaca as the sports anchor.

As part of the show’s introduction, listeners will have an opportunity to give the show a name with prizes up for grabs. Until then the #NoNameBreakfastShow airs weekdays, 6:00 – 9:00.

David Mashabela will return with another season of The Royal Playground between 12:00 and 15: 00. In addition, Paul Mnisi will drive listeners home with his team Isaac Gampu and Lonwabo Nkohla on sports duty on The Drive Connection, 15:00 – 18:00.

Radio 2000 said it bids farewell to radio legend Lewis Mpotseng Tshinaba aka Glen Lewis, whose journey with RADIO 2000 comes to an end after hosting the breakfast show in the past year and afternoon drive show in 2022-23 lineup. The much-loved talent will present his last show on 29 March 2024. The station management said it thanks Glen for all his work and being part of the team that has grown the station and wish him all the very best in his future plans.
