SIPHOKAZI JANUARY FROM THE GREAT ESCAPE STRAIGHT TO THE GREAVEYARD

In April 2013 a lot of Metro FM listeners were shocked to read that Azania Mosaka was leaving Metro for Power FM and Siphokazi would be replacing her with a new show "Full Circle" and her slot was received with mixed emotions. 

In 2014 came the queen of everything Bonang Matheba who took over the time slot with the new show "The Front Row" with Mr. Tee & The Naked DJ and January was moved to a new time slot 12pm to 3pm with Amon Mokoena and it is said that Miss January was really hurt that Metro FM was replacing her with Bonang Matheba. 

As much as we thought Siphokazi January & Amon Mokoena were doing great on their new time slot, most people predicted that Miss January will be moved to a graveyard slot. As much as it was predicated but when Metro FM confirmed the new line-up it came as a surprise that January will be yet again moved from The Great Escape to a new slot 1am - 5am on Saturdays. 

Bonang Matheba will be flying solo this time around on The Front Row Reloaded from 10am - 12pm while the breakfast show team is moving to 5am - 8am to accommodate an additional breakfast show. 

New faces Lerato Kganyago, Mo Flava, Sammy Sossa and Pearl Modiadia are joining Metro FM

Meanwhile, DJ Sbu has indeed been left off the line-up after he flouted SABC rules by promoting his energy drink at the Metro FM Awards last month.

In all honesty, I think Metro FM was unfair to Siphokazi January & I do not see Mo Flava, Sammy Sam work on this new time slot . 

If I were to make any changes on Metro FM I would bring in Minnie Dlamini or Penny Lebiyane to join the breakfast team, Unathi Msengana to  9am - 12pm, Siphokazi January, Sammy Sosa & Mo Flava to 12pm - 3pm, and Bonang Matheba to do the drive time 3pm -6pm. The drive time screams Queen B*
