Mamela neh, I haven’t done this for three years, I’m going to call number wrong station’s number or name…get over it,” says Nkayi just a few minutes into her brand new show “Midday Joy” with Unathi on Kaya FM.

In a video posted on the station social media platforms, Nkayi is seen crying during the conversation with the duo as they continue to welcome her.
In response, she said:” It’s been a wonderful journey this past month, getting ready. I was in the Caribbean last week and bumping into so many South Africans and Afropolitan…saying ‘please don’t miss your flight, we really need to hear you on Monday”.
The clearly emotional Nkayi, added: ‘It’s been overwhelming to say the least and absolutely beautiful. I feel safe and it’s rare…it’s a rare feeling.
