Tributes are pouring as Veteran broadcaster John Berks has died.
The star passed away after a long illness at the age of 80.
Berks worked for many years at commercial radio station Radio 702.
According to a tweet from former traffic presenter Aki Anastasiou, he says Berks had a sense of humour like no other and was one of a kind.
He also worked for Swazi Music Radio, Springbok Radio, Capital Radio 604 Transkei and Radio 5.
His prank shows Fun Calls and Telephone Time on radio were among the country’s most popular shows.
May his soul rest in perfect peace.
A radio giant has fallen! A pioneer of talk radio in SA. He created the most authentic theatre of the mind experiences for his listeners. A sense of humour like no other. He had such a massive influence on my radio career. John Berks you were one of a kind! #RIPBerksie pic.twitter.com/b3FGZvBfj0
