THE SABC is said to be ready to bring its prodigal son
back to the small screen!
This after the powers that be at the public broadcaster and the ANC
Youth League (ANCYL), showed support to bringing Bonginkosi “Zola 7” Dlamini
back to TV.
According to sources, Zola 7 will meet SABC COO, Hlaudi Motsoeneng,
next week.
This with the aim to discuss his comeback.
A source at the SABC told Sunday Sun: “The SABC and
Zola need each other. At the moment, all we know is the guy will be back on our
screens.
“Top government officials have been backing the move to bring him
back.”
Njabulo Nzuza, secretary general of the ANCYL, said they fully
support the move..
“The ANCYL supports the return of Zola to our TV Screens and we
will continue to lobby the public Broadcaster to do so.
Our view is supporters by the fact that the show Zola 7 gave hope
and inspiration to many young South Africans. The show also assisted a lot of
Young People who experienced a number of problems and provided solutions for
them.”
Hlaudi could not confirm or deny the claims. When contacted by the
SunTeam, he said: “I can’t comment on that right now... I can’t.”
When approached for comment, Zola 7 said: “I can’t comment.”
