Veteran broadcaster and singer-songwriter Unathi Nkayi recently made headlines again due to her ongoing drama with her former radio station Kaya959. This is as it was made public that Unathi was taking the radio station to court and demanding an R1.6 million payout.
Reported by Sunday World at the time stating:
Unathi Nkayi, the former Kaya FM DJ and Idols SA judge have filed a lawsuit against her former employer, Kaya FM, for unlawful termination after a verbal altercation with Sizwe Dhlomo. According to Sunday World, Unathi is seeking compensation for unpaid salary, damages, defamation, and impairment of dignity.
Given the animosity between Sizwe Dhlomo and Unathi following her dismissal, it was not a surprise when Sizwe took to the timeline following the story breaking and adding his two cents about the entire situation.
