The station manager, Caren du Preez, who has worked with Unathi before, says she's honoured to have her on the platform and that listeners are set to hear her in a way they have never before.
This follows after Unathi was fired from Kaya 959 late last year in the aftermath of an alleged argument between her and colleague Sizwe Dhlomo.
“Unathi Nkayi's contract has ended prematurely due to certain conduct that rendered the relationship intolerable going forward. Kaya 959 can confirm certain incidents occurred which resulted in the breakdown of trust between the two parties.” read the station's official statement.
