Hot FM fires Mutale Mwanza

Share

Popular radio station Hot FM has fired controversial radio and TV personality Mutale Mwanza.

Ms Mwanza was until today a co-host of the hugely popular Red Hot Breakfast Show.

The decision to sack Ms. Mwanza was announced by the station’s Chief Operating Officer Oscar Chavula.

Mr. Chavula said Ms. Mwanza was fired for dragging the name of the station to her level.

Below is the full letter from Mr. Chavula.

“It is with profound regret that I must inform you that management has decided to terminate your employment with Hot FM with immediate effect.

We find your brand to be seriously in conflict with the Hot FM brand and values and can no longer allow this trend to continue.

Your latest antics are, in our view, highly disrespectful, unprovoked and unconscionable considering that they were targeted at an elderly national leader. It literally amounts to cyber bullying and we do not condone such in our values and principles.

We believe we have cautioned you enough in the last few months regarding your public conduct and warned you against dragging our brand and company down to your level.

Time has come to part company with you and we wish you well in your future endeavors.”

Regards
Oscar Chavula

  1. Long overdue! Mutale is like Iris, they’re too rebellious and independent to conform to the values of the organization/company they work for…They don’t care about dragging their company’s name in the dirt as long as their personal objective (usually sexual and/or showing off in nature) is being met.

  5. PF is really in trouble, losing everyone into trash bin. Mutale said her pnssy defended her from spilling beans of those politicians who buys her expensive cars.
    Lets see if she get help from PF by closing Hot FM.

  6. Too bad for Mutale Mwanza but for the police one cop has been nabbed for the killings of the state prosecutor and the other , we still have Police Officers who killed Mapenzi, Vespers, and Frank Mugala on the loose. Not even quarter of the job is done yet, until we get the others as well. Police are still waiting for the President to ask for a report to do what they are supposed to do

  7. Bwana CEO, yes the young lady might have been out of order but debasing by firing her using media is so wrong. Your letter is emotionally charged.

  8. Poor reporting – Not unexpected – you leave your leave us to speculate once again. You miss out the detail(s) of what MM did or did not do. You assume we all know the details. Did she refuse to suck of look at KZN’s dicKtionary ? What happened kanshi?

  9. That is social media for you it will left you up if you are doing the right thing and drop you down like a bag of maize if you take it for granted I hope she has learned something and move on.

  10. She calls a spade a spade and that frightens a lot of people in the Christian nation. Without fear or favor, theliz yes! This young lady is ahead of her times and those scared of the truth should stay in their christian nation. Let the last one of that sort close the door after themselves.

  11. It was bound to happen. I hope she seeks counsel. I am here to help her find God. Don’t disrespect leaders and think you can get away with it. Ask Larry mweetwa.

  12. I’m guessing she wasn’t a full time employee of Hot FM but just a co-hostess of the breakfast show? There is a hint of brand conflict, these being the radio station’s and her “Bio-Oil” modelling? I doubt she’s lost much in terms of earnings because of her separation from Hot FM unless her other brand engagements suffer too. I’d like to imagine her other brand attachments are international in nature where PF’s influence is not that strong.

  13. Some of you here especially diasporans are just as bad as her. The thing is you can tell those that genuinely have money and are successful from those who are faking it till they make it. I know this girl very well and funded her silly lifestyle at some point until her begging got out of control. Let her and that silly baboon kondwani reunite and make some ugly kids. Twalipitapo kale

  14. The most classic adage regarding trolling is, “Don’t feed the trolls.” Trolls seek out emotional responses and find provocation amusing, so replying to them or attempting to debate them will only make them troll more. By ignoring a troll completely, they will likely become frustrated and go somewhere else on the internet.

    You should try your best not to take anything trolls say seriously. No matter how poorly they behave, remember these people spend countless unproductive hours trying to make people mad. They’re not worth your time of day.

  15. After attending the flag off for the walk for cyber bulling, then she goes on sho sho media to bully another lady, just like most people said those pushing for this law might be the first to get smitten. Remember the grade 12 issue?

  16. Mutale’ greatest asset is her mouth, unfortunately, its also the one thing that will bring her down. You can not call yourself a professional while you stand on the mountain high hailing unprintables to anyone irrespective of age. Isn’t it interesting, that her sacking comes soon after the death of Zacharia chavula. It is now very clear that of the two brothers, Zach was probably protecting her while Oscar stood on the sidelines waiting to pull the trigger at any opportunity.
    Now, to use her favourite word: ” bamu tantula chika!&$la!”.

  17. When a small girl starts sleeping with Older men,she becomes overzealous and starts disrespecting older women!
    That is Mutale Mwanza for you…stupid girl with a big mouth!!

  18. This is lack of media policy in most organization…employees don’t know what to share on social media… Then again this girl is just all over the map… inflated egos and beauty… talk of putting lipstick on the pig….

  19. Yes Zach must have been her first and last line of defense. Hot fm was also her launch pad to many deals. Lets see how she survives

  21. The ladder that she used to get to the top has been removed. Now girl, it is either you stay on the top or you jump. You cannot come down comfortably. Stay where you are but remember this, in a dictatorship no one will want to be seen with you if you are against the ruling elite. Sponsors will now start shutting their doors. You will be left alone. Thankfully, it may not be too long.

  22. She Is just a sacrificial lamb i know they knew one day PF will get at them so they needed to do something that looks like they don’t condone nonsense when they actually do.

  23. I don’t know why I come to this mediocre site. Seriously when you report on this kind of issue, please be professional. You have told us the result but you have left out the cause. Redo this story and tell us what she was doing that so offended people. Not everyone knows this woman.
