Former president Jacob Zuma's fiancee, Nonkanyiso Conco,
has joined KwaZulu-Natal-based radio station Vuma FM. She joined the station
last week and presents Women in Conversation with LaConco.
Vuma's programmes manager Patrick Bogats said Conco was
hired because the station was looking for someone passionate about women
issues. She was the most promising, with more potential than the rest of the
applicants. At the time of signing her, I did not know who she was until a
story appeared in papers."
Conco told Sowetan yesterday that she was excited and was
looking forward to growing in the industry, adding that radio had always been
her first love. "There are issues as women that we go through on a daily
basis, and there is no platform to talk about them. We have a month to
celebrate women but it's not enough as there are challenges women go through
almost everyday," she explained.
"The show will encourage the listeners to be able to
conquer challenges in life. My wish is to see a better society, an hour being
on air is the best platform to reach people and give them a chance to voice
whatever they are going through.
