Dr. Mbuyiseni Ndlozi Takes on New Role as Radio Host Post-EFF Resignation

Former Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) spokesperson, Dr. Mbuyiseni Ndlozi, is embarking on a fresh chapter in his career as the new host of Power Talk on Power FM, a leading Gauteng-based radio station. This move comes shortly after Ndlozi's high-profile resignation from the EFF, an event that sparked widespread speculation about his future career path.

Ndlozi’s transition to radio is set to begin in April, where he will replace Lerato Mbele. His new platform, Power Talk, promises to offer an "alternative show with no limits," focusing on national issues that resonate with the citizens of South Africa. This role seems tailor-made for Ndlozi, who has always engaged passionately with public discourses, earning him the affectionate nickname 'people’s bae'.

The announcement was officially made by Power FM following a buzz of rumors about Ndlozi's next steps after politics. Interestingly, a report by Sunday World revealed that Power FM had approached Ndlozi months ago, which aligns with his recent participation in the Chairman’s Conversation interview hosted by the radio station with MSG Africa Group Executive Chairman, Given Mkhari.

During the interview, Ndlozi expressed his commitment to maintaining respectful discourse, avoiding personal attacks against his former party leader, Julius Malema, despite their political differences. He emphasized politics rooted in love and progressive revolutions, indicating his ongoing commitment to impactful, positive change.

Furthermore, Ndlozi addressed the circumstances surrounding his departure from the EFF, denying allegations of being a double agent or involved in any infiltration strategy linked to Umkhonto Wesizwe Party. He highlighted the unsupported basis of his suspension, which focused on supposed connections and undisclosed information about former EFF deputy president Floyd Shivambu's political moves.

With his new role at Power FM, Ndlozi is poised to continue his engagement with public issues and national debates, providing a platform for robust discussions that could shape public opinion and potentially influence policy.

This move might also signal a broader trend of politicians transitioning into media roles where they can leverage their insights and experiences in governance and public policy. As Ndlozi prepares to take over the airwaves, listeners can anticipate a show filled with engaging content, insightful analysis, and spirited discussions.
