Thomphanani Ramudzuli Nengome, also known as “TRN,” has returned to Makhado FM after a six-year break.
The Tshikombani-born presenter started his radio career as a news anchor at Makhado FM back in 2012. In 2018, he opted to take a break from radio to pursue other options. However, the microphone kept calling, and he decided to pursue his dream again.
“Radio is my life, and I feel very happy to be back where I belong. Through radio, I can interact with different people and learn new things daily. I missed my listeners over these almost six years, and this reunion is the start of a new page for me,” he said.
Nengome added that his mission was to contribute to the development and success of local media. As an all-rounder, he finds presenting a talk show to be relatively easy. “I can present any kind of programme. Over the years, I have done different radio shows. I am happy that the response from the listeners during my first show last Monday was very positive. I believe that my presence at the radio station will add value as I will also be there to mentor young presenters who regard me as their role model.”
Nengome will be in charge of the current affairs show on Makhado FM during weekends from 07:00 to 08:00. However, he feels that the one-hour show may not be enough to satisfy his demand for interaction. “I love socialising and educating the community - something I believe radio does effectively. This really fuels my passion as a radio presenter,” he said.

Omphulusa Ramenu, a writer from Muhuyu, has published her second novel, titled “Mbuyelela I yala.” Ramenu hopes that this offering to the world of literature will change people’s lives, especially the youth. “This book is about the different kinds of challenges people face in their lives. Some of these challenges we choose for ourselves, while there are also challenges that we don’t have a say in; they just come, and we have to face them.”
