Dineo Ranaka has joined Metro FM and the screen goddess is going to be part of the Front Row crew.
Dineo's appointment comes less than 24 hours since Bonang resigned from the station. Despite insiders claiming that Bonang resigned after being informed about co-hosting with Lerato Kganyago, B rubbished the claims. Bonang told TshisaLIVE that she left "on principle" and that she was only notified about the changes an hour before she went on air.
"It could have been anybody else in that chair. It could have been male, female, a famous person or a non-famous person. It was principle that mattered to me," she said.
Dineo stepped into the role only hours after Bonang announced that she had resigned from the station. She started her first show as co-host with Lerato Kganyago on Tuesday morning.
Speaking to TshisaLIVE, SABC spokesperson Kazier Kganyago confirmed that Dineo had joined Metro FM and said that the station did all it could to replace Bonang with someone of a similar quality.
Speaking on the show, she said: "It was a conversation with Metro FM in the afternoon yesterday, and a conversation with Metro FM in the evening yesterday, and then a conversation with you [Lerato] in the evening, followed by a conversation with God later on in the evening, and now conversations with the rest of the country."
