Penny Ntuli is said to be on sick leave after being exposed to severe cold.
Ntuli was on her way to Durban from Johannesburg to attend a funeral on Friday when she and Uzalo actor and friend, Buyani Masikane, got stuck in the snow on the road near Montrose on the N3 toll route for more than 24 hours.
Presenter Penny Ntuli has been placed on sick leave while recovering in the care of her mother in Durban, KwaZulu Nata.
Speaking to Zimoja, Penny’s boss Mpho Mhlongo-Njomane confirmed that she is off work.
“She is at home now relaxing and seeing doctors to make sure that is fully okay,’ he said. He also added that they don’t know how long she will be away from work at the moment.
“We have given her some time to get better and return when she is fit enough. We felt that we shouldn’t put her under pressure after a strenuous weekend for her,’ he added.
