The SABC has removed

Umhlobo Wenene Breakfast show host Phiwe “Pastor The DJ” Nozewu after he expressed “joy” on Twitter regarding a confrontation between an EFF supporter who was assaulted in Brackenfell, Cape Town, and local residents. The public broadcaster announced its decision on Twitter on Thursday after calls by the EFF to have Nozewu removed.

“The SABC can confirm that Mr Phiwe Nozewu is unscheduled on Umhlobo Wenene FM by the station’s management following his public utterances on Twitter in relation to a violent incident which took place in Cape Town. The SABC views this matter in a serious light and has therefore unscheduled Mr Nozewu until further notice for bringing the organisation into disrepute,” it wrote in two separate tweets.

EFF had nothing to do with Nozewus removal

Look at that. Who is the clown now? 🤣🤣🤣 We are the EFF. We are in charge.

Dt is act of coward

The removal of Umhlobo Wenene Breakfast show host Phiwe “Pastor The DJ” Nozewu is pure nonsense

Well done SABC..

Good riddance to bad rubbish

Thank you .

This is not fair shame

We won't pay tv license

For expressing 'JOY' ?!?!? SABC is a joke mos

This must have been an easy one since the SABC is planning retrenchments

Next thing you know your career is over, ntwana, over some characters.

justiceforNozewu bringbackpastor

Good move, he is a disgrace

Shame, please give him a chance to apologize. He can't be unemployed again.

I'm sorry Dj Pastor but those EFF members/parents also represented me as an ANC member who is a parent. Those EFF members represented blacks in general but Africans in particular. We cannot joke about racism, sexism and all other biases the world harbours. Hardy ndoda

EFF doesn't play marbles teach them lessons

Uphaphile mtshana sungxama bubom obu

Pastor blocked me after MEC of wathi Andidikwe on national TV and He defended her, in the exposing him and his bias behavior I was blocked.

Formal Complaint dated 2018

Tshotsho PastortheDJ

He must choose if he wants to be a politician or a radio personality. He can't be both

I also had lots of joy.

He must contain himself and 'ACT' impartial.

This idiot must be punished a lot how do u laugh women being beaten by racist

And I express joy if the SABC will stop being histeric and racist!!

They used an opportunity to fire him , instead of retrenching him like the others at SABC ..he must challenge this..

Great job.

They remove the best of the best DJ for this mere nonsense because they scared Malema sabc is the really joke

ITKHUMALO A good reason not to pay the SABC anything.

Hey Gudisile_ anidlali mos.💀

Being a presenter is tricky.

Amazing how the EFF does absolutely as they please. But the moment someone offends them, they demand immediate remediation, and never accepts any apology.

Freedom of speech is alive and well at the SABC 😊🤣😁😅😜😬😊

Oh please!!! So EFF can insult everybody they like but nobody dare do the same to them

Goooood!!!

Thank you for removing him Abusers esxposed themselves

They removed him because he's a man, had it been a woman who expressed 'joy' towards the incidence it was gonna be overlooked.

Ndlozi wasn't removed when he called a woman's harrasment a 'merely touching' not violence 😏

We cannot afford to have propagandist media personnel

Good riddance!

I admit he was wrong but that was unintentional, compared to kwezindlavini soloko ziqhwaya qhushululu. But l knw that a good person will always to be blamed!
