The DJ’s apparent popularity on social media comes after he was suspended from Metro FM following a complaint lodged through the Broadcasting Complaints Commission of South Africa.

Fresh has been found guilty of foul language on air. He has been ordered to stay home and return to work on July 15.

Sunday World reports two SABC sources alleging that Fresh, through his lawyers, refused to adhere to conditions of his return on air. The DJ commented on a statement of his suspension to confirm that he had offered to apologise on the matter.
