Sammy Sosa is NOT leaving Metro FM

Johannesburg - Radio DJ Sammy Sosa will return to her slot on Metro FM! The station just doesn't know when.

It's been a while since we last heard Sammy on our radio, with Pearl Thusi stepping in for The Hustle host on the Morning Fix, a show Sammy co-hosts with Mo-Flava.

This has led to speculation that Sammy may not return to the station and may be replaced by her stand in, Pearl.

But these rumours have been rubbished by SABC spokesperson Kaizer Kganyago who told the The Juice Sammy is just feeling a little unwell at the moment.

"As has been indicated, the person is unwell. We therefore do not know what will happen in the future. We will take it from there, but the management of Metro will be in touch. The last info I recieved from my office is that she is not well," said Kaizer.

Kaizer says the public broadcaster does not know when Sammy would return, but that there is no plan to replace her with Pearl.

"For now she is just standing in. She has her own show on Saturdays," Kaizer told us.

Let's hope Sammy gets better soon or she might just run out of sick leave... or a job.
