Sizwe Dhlomo turns down Lasizwe’s show invite, offers mentorship instead
Radio Legend Sizwe Dhlomo Declines Show Invite But Offers Lasizwe Rare Mentorship Opportunity
In a move that sparked thoughtful discussion online, veteran broadcaster Sizwe Dhlomo recently declined an appearance on Lasizwe’s Awkward Dates – but countered with an intriguing professional proposition.
The Exchange That Got Mzansi Talking
The conversation began when a fan suggested Dhlomo would be a great guest for the popular YouTube show. When host Lasizwe Dambuza extended the invitation, the Kaya FM personality responded with characteristic candor:
“I don’t do interviews… Good show though. If ever I have something to promote one day, I’ll hit you up. Keep up the good work.”
Beyond Rejection: A Mentor’s Offer
Rather than leaving it at no, Dhlomo proposed something potentially more valuable:
“Don’t bring cameras, but you can shadow me for a full week. I’ll give you a breakdown of how to move in the game. That’s if you’ll find that kind of info useful. Your choice.”
Mixed Reactions From Fans
The offer divided social media:
Team Growth: Many praised this as a rare chance for industry insight from a media veteran
Team Awkward: Some questioned whether the gesture felt slightly condescending
Lasizwe’s Rising Star Power
The exchange hasn’t slowed Lasizwe’s momentum – his show recently secured Miss Universe Zozibini Tunzi as a guest, with wishlist names like Bonang Matheba and Tyla still in play.
