In 2021 Somizi Mhlongo requested time off from the SABC radio station following his nasty breakup with Mohale Motaung.
The SABC revealed in a statement:
“The Corporation has also noted the comments on social media about Mr. Mhlongo and we would like to point out that the public service broadcaster does not condone any acts of abuse and violence.”
“The SABC can confirm that Metro FM SA management met with Mr. Somizi Mhlongo and he has requested to take some time off from work. Management has granted Mr. Mhlongo permission to do so.”
