RADIO host and emcee Itumeleng Sebola says she's having the time of her life behind the microphone.

The 28-year-old said hosting Groove on Capricorn FM meant the world to her.

The presenter said she started the show in November 2022.

Itumeleng said Groove is a music show that gets everyone in the mood for partying at night.

The presenter from Mankweng Unit F in Limpopo, said her show airs every Saturday night from 6 to 10 pm.

"The groovers are amazing and made me feel very welcome. It’s been great to officially join the lineup this year and my Saturday nights are no longer the same.

"Well, my history with radio is a funny story, as much as I always dreamt of being on radio because of the people I grew up listening too. My love for writing made me give up my dream of radio and become a print journalist, which is what I ended up doing after I graduated in 2017," she said.

Itumeleng said her journey on radio started in 2018 when she joined a community radio station called Radio Turf.

"I started as a reporter, then became a news reader. My news editor at the time loved my voice and thought I should go on air," she said.

Itumeleng said she worked at the station for two years. 

"From that moment on, I knew this was what I wanted to do. I wanted the whole world to hear my voice, not just heart it, but hear the information that I have," Itumeleng said.

She said she then joined Limpopo’s Hottest Frequency Capricorn FM as a weekend news reader in 2019.

"In January 2020, I started doing the morning news from 10am to 2pm. I have been on radio for five years now," she said.

Itumeleng said she was inspired by media personality Bonang Matheba, and DJ Fresh. She said he loves how listeners warm her heart with their voicenotes and news.
