Media personality Pearl Modiadie has left the socials shook after she opened up about experiencing s.e.xual harassment at her previous workplace.
Modiadie, who at first was afraid to go public about being a victim of s.e.xual harassment at her former job, has detailed the numerous disturbing experiences she endured under her male manager while working at a national broadcasting station.
Now Mzansi has managed to put one and one together and Pearl’s alleged abuser has been named as Tony Soglo. Tony is the program manager at Metro.
I kept quiet for too long until media picked it up and never have I been grateful for that because it finally gave me the courage to speak out about the sexual harassment I was was subjected to at Metro FM. https://t.co/y5qgtEXGVn

This is following a report made by a certain local publication which gave the media personality the courage to confirm the story on social media.
In a tweet that has since got many rallying behind the radio personality for claiming back her power by speaking out, Modiadie alluded how “grateful” she was that the media “picked it up” as she would’ve never had the courage to speak out about the s.e.xual harassment she was subjected to at Metro FM.
The SABC views sexual harassment in a serious light and will use its internal policies and procedures to deal with this matter. The SABC encourages any employees subjected to sexual harassment to use the Corporation’s specific internal channels to report such cases.

Media personality Pearl Modiadie has left the socials shook after she opened up about experiencing s.e.xual harassment at her previous workplace.
Modiadie, who at first was afraid to go public about being a victim of s.e.xual harassment at her former job, has detailed the numerous disturbing experiences she endured under her male manager while working at a national broadcasting station.
According to the publication, the s.e.xual harassment Modiadie, who used to co-host the midday show with Thomas Msengana, allegedly experienced at the national broadcaster was revealed by sources who produced e-mail exchanges between the radio personality and the station’s marketing team.
The exchanges also showed how Modiadie had complained to the then station manager about inappropriate comments that he was making about her as well as his s.e.xual innuendos about her body.
However, when confronted with Modiadie’s allegations, the SABC’s management said the matter was not brought to their attention.
