Poet and activist Ntsiki Mazwai took it upon herself to explain why Sol Phenduka was “acting like a fan” after a video of him dancing in the studio did the rounds on the socials. 

In the video the Kaya 959 radio host was attempting to do a dance that Oscar Mbo had done before. 

Taking to her Twitter timeline Ntsiki shared a clip of herself breaking down what she thought was actually happening. 

“Sol took that video yesterday dancing because Dineo has been getting really bad publicity over the weekend on the Sunday, so obviously everybody would want to know and see how's Dineo after her flop, and Sol did that thing that fans do when they turn on the video and then quickly show that they are with a celebrity, just wanted to say that,” she said.

Kaya 959 said it had full confidence in Dineo Ranaka and Sol after the pair have been trending on social media due to their alleged disharmony on the airwaves.

The 959 Breakfast show was ushered in after Thomas and Skhumba's exit from the timeslot but instead of making waves for their chemistry, Dineo had been fingered “for leaving Sol out in the cold”.

In a statement shared with TshisaLIVE, Kaya 959 said it was confident in its pairing of the two.

“Structure of 959 Breakfast is that Dineo Ranaka is the main anchor and Sol Phenduka the co-host and traffic reporter. We are aware that a female lead anchor on a breakfast show is unusual in the SA radio landscape but we have full confidence in both Dineo and Sol’s talent and their ability to navigate the dynamic of the show,” says Kaya 959 MD Sibongile Mtyali.
