eNCA (DStv 403) is adding Style Syndicate with presenter Lindiwe Sithole as a new weekly Top Billing-type lifestyle and entertainment magazine show on Fridays, from 24 July 2020 at 21:30.
Style Syndicate follows in the footsteps of e.tv, eNews Channel and later eNCA shows like Nicky Greenwall's The Showbiz Report and The Style Report, and Tanya Nefdt's The Spotlight of 2018.
The half-hour Style Syndicate will cover fashion, property profiles, profile celebrities and do car features.
Lindiwe Sithole has appeared on Fridays during eNCA anchor Jane Dutton's show in a "The Tea with Lindi" segment and she also appears on the "The Entertainment Wrap" slot on Fridays on e.tv's The Morning Show.
eNCA says that Lindiwe Sithole in Style Syndicate will "weave and bob her way through the ever-exciting lives of celebrities such as DJ Zinhle, Crystall Kay, and Kelly Khumalo".
"You can expect to experience euphoria and slight car envy, when she takes a drive in House music DJ Prince Kaybee's mean German machine. Lindiwe takes us on a tour of Miss South Africa Sasha Lee's Sandton apartment and thrills us with a few international big-name superstars."
Lindiwe Sithole in a eNCA statement says "I’m over the moon about the opportunity to take people on a journey of all things lifestyle entertainment".
"Style Syndicate will give you a sneak peek into the world of luxury - homes, cars, art, food, fashion, and so much more. At the moment, we are faced with so much uncertainty and challenges, and I believe that levity has its part to play. I hope to bring that through in this show."
Norman Ndivhuho Munzhelele, eNCA managing director, says "We believe that Style Syndicate will strongly tap into our viewer's need for lifestyle and entertainment content. Lindiwe is a breath of fresh air. And we are delighted about her stand-alone show".
