Is SABC also cutting off Selimathunzi?
Is SABC also cutting off Selimathunzi? Change is a nasty experience, isn’t it? Especially when it comes in floods as the ones at the SABC. The public broadcaster has made abrupt announcements which detailed just how much change in programming is set to occur therefore bracing the loyal viewers for more unsuspected tweaks.
South African well-known entertainment blogger, Phil Mphela, set his Twitter to feed ablaze when he posted that he had it on good authority that South Africa’s most loved gossip television show Real Goboza, Selimathunzi and #WTF Tumi are set to get the chop very soon. It is still not in the clear as to what extent these reports are true as there have been some really opposing posts from industry insiders.
That is 100% true. I have it on good authority that #WTFTumi and #Selimathunzi could also be on the chopping block if they aren’t already. https://t.co/oWB1pHOvli

South African businesswoman and media personality, Uyanda Mbuli responded to the claims made by Phil Mphela. Uyanda’s comments hold weight as she previously worked at the SABC.An iconic television show such Selimathunzi would unlikely get the chop as Uyanda stated in her tweet.

In a deleted tweet, Phil had boldly stated that Real Goboza will be decommissioned going forward. This post did not sit well with a number of people as they found it misleading.
Phil has since corrected his post, by stating that Real Goboza will, in fact, be recommissioned.
CORRECTION: A typo has led to miscommunication on this story. The show will be RE-commissioned not DE-commissioned.
RGB is not CANCELLED according to SABC. The show/production is just on a break.
It happens. Apologies to @OfficialRGB staff. You still got jobs! pic.twitter.com/R0TJ1qy0gQ

The Real Goboza team seemed unfazed by the latest claims as they tweeted a rather enticing and reassuring post about the vague happenings on the show.

We are sitting at the edges of our seats – trying to figure out what the SABC could throw our way because there are upsetting changes going around.
