South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) has served legal letter for The Braai Show with Cassper Nyovest to stop, few days after announcing that the rapper is to take over from AKA as the host of the show.
According to social media expert, Phil Mphela, “T-Effect, AKA’s management, through their legal representation Tailor Made Solutions, have served the broadcaster with a legal letter demanding that they cease scheduled airing of the show.”
The show which is expected to air in September 2021, has been served with an injunction demand over the issue of IP ownership.

AKA is said to co-own the show, but the rapper seem to be unaware in the change of host.
Phil took to Twitter explaining to his audience, “AKA owns 50% of #TheBraaiShow & is the Executive Producer. I reached out to AKA’s management to get clarity on his involvement on #TheBraaiShowWithCass, and per T Effect statement, he was not consulted for approval.”
