Replacing Jackie
Nana is replacing Jackie Matubia on the show after she exited under unclear circumstances.
Announcing her departure from, Jackie thanked her fans for their continued support accorded to her during her hosting days.
“Good morning lovely people it was an honour gracing your screen…Thank you @switchtvke for the platform. To my fans I love you guys and will be gracing the screens soon bigger and better… Tuzidi,” wrote Jackie.
Sacked?
According to a statement released by Switch TV on Monday, January 6, 2019, the organization said it would be making staffing changes in accordance to its 2020 strategy growth that will unfortunately see a number of talents relieved of their duties.
Which begs the question; could it be that Jackie was among those individuals laid off?
"We will be reviewing the existing programming; cancelling and launching new shows; which may affect some of the existing talent," read part of the email.
