Ayanda Ncwane hosts new talk show on internet television

Widow to inspire hope to women

- By Kyle Zeeman

The widow of late gospel star Sfiso Ncwane will be motivating and inspiring women on a new talk show coming soon.

Ayanda Ncwane will host Tea, Talk and Tissues with Ayanda Ncwane on internet TV channel RiteVac TV.

The show will see Ayanda sit down with ordinary women to discuss the challenges and triumphs of being a woman.

Speaking to Sowetan, Ayanda said: “I can’t talk much about it yet, but I am excited at the opportunit­y.”

The channel’s founder and director Themba Ndala said Ayanda had already started filming ahead of the show’s debut in the next few weeks.

It is expected to be available from June.

He said the channel approached Ayanda to do the show after seeing her strength post her husband’s death late last year.

“We pitched the idea to Ayanda because we were inspired by her strength and resolve in the face of difficulti­es.

“She inspires so many women around her to be strong, and we felt that she could really add [value] to the channel,” Ndala said.

“RiteVac is about inspiring youth and young adults to be better and to make a difference. It features people who make a change in their community.”

Ayanda’s show is the latest series to be added to the growing online television channel, and joins its show Thought Leaders as their flagship programme.
