Johannesburg- Idols judge Unathi Nkayi was relieved of her duties at Kaya FM this morning.
The radio station said in a statement, “Ms. Nkayi’s contract has ended prematurely due to certain conduct that rendered the relationship intolerable going forward. Kaya 959 can confirm that certain incidents had occurred, which resulted in the breakdown of the trust relationship between the two parties.”
Nkayi previously also worked at Metro FM and unexpectedly quit after 10 years at the station.

She later explained that ‘she didn’t like what was going on.’
Fans took to social media to voice their opinions on Unathi leaving the station.
Take a look at what some of them had to say below:

It's really upsetting how good talent is treated. Unathi's dismissal for me, means I can't listen to Kaya fm any longer. Things that happen behind the scenes are troubling.

This Unathi Nkaya / Kaya FM professional divorce reads like an intimate union gone wrong. There's apparently a "breakdown of trust".

Is it true that Unathi was fired on Kaya FM for crying on radio? She cries all the time now on TV too. pic.twitter.com/QojdAhSbgv

that Kaya FM statement reflects the state at which the orgizanization is that: poor quality, lack of attention to detail, and overall lack of tact. did they fire their communications person too?
