After weeks of speculation from listeners and DJ Fresh’s fans whether he would be back on air, he vowed to break the silence on his suspension.
On Wednesday, Thato Sukwene also popularly as DJ Fresh took to Twitter and posted a video thanking his fans for the support. This is after he was suspended by the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) from the Fresh Breakfast Show on Metro FM three weeks ago after a listener laid a complaint with the Broadcasting Complaints Commission (BCCSA).

So the SABC is doing to DJ Fresh what Supersport did to Robert Marawa….
To be honest bosses always hate intellectuals who stand their ground and always live on principles. When they get intimidated by your work ethics and your grounded-ness, they find means to get rid of you.
