Sechaba Gqeba the new presenter of the female-focused talk show, Motswako, for its 19th season on SABC2.


Sechaba Gqeba is the new presenter of the female-focused talk show, Motswako, for its 19th season on SABC2 on Wednesdays at 20:30.

Sechaba Gqeba, also known as Sechaba G, is a radio DJ on KFM with Motswako that is her first on-screen TV job.

"What attracted me to the show is the vision behind Motswako; it provides women with a platform to unapologetically speak their truth, and propels them to shed light on matters that a number of women can relate to," says Sechaba Gqeba. "The vision and purpose of the show truly speak to who I am and represent my passions for uplifting women."

Clive Mathibe, Motswako content producer at Carol Bouwer Productions, says Motswako is thrilled to be "in our new studio with our brand-new presenter, Sechaba Gqeba, as we continue to be a show that gives a platform to new faces in the television industry".

"Motswako's 19th season promises to be exciting, fresh, in touch and in tune with the needs and wants of the modern day African woman". The latest season will continue to profile empowering and entertaining stories that are about and for South African women.

BREAKING. No Reservations on SABC3 finally getting its product endorsement right: ''Glomail is one of our sponsors,'' says Katie Mohamed.


After hiding its product placement deal for five weeks, SABC3's prime time talk show No Reservations finally got it right and came out by admitting the hiherto ''secret'' yet blatant product endorsement deal.

No Reservations co-produced for SABC3 by Tswelopele Productions and Carol Bouwer Productions didn't disclose or gave any indication previously that it actually got ''pay-for-say'' money from advertiser Glomail in return for hawking the advertiser's products during the show. The show has now finally done it correctly in tonight's episode at 20:00 on SABC3. No Reservations not only properly disclosed the fact that a product being discussed in the show is actually that of - and talked about because of - a sponsor, but also handled it correctly by doing it before the product is discussed.

No Reservations presenter Katie Mahomed told viewers, ''As you know, Glomail is one of our sponsors,'' before she introduced and discussed the Zumba Fitness product. Product placement and product endorsement is generally frowned upon exactly because viewers are often easily misled by either producers or broadcasters who fail to properly disclose that what viewers are seeing and deem to be personal on-air endorsements, are actually sponsored and paid for TV content. In terms of showing integrity towards its viewers, No Reservations has now done the right thing.
