Sizwe Dhlomo hints he misses Sol Phenduka

Sizwe Dhlomo had social media buzzing after he admitted on X that he still misses his former Kaya 959 co-host, Sol Phenduka.

The media personality dropped the confession using a playful pun inspired by Phenduka’s love for wordplay, making the moment even more nostalgic for fans who adored their on-air dynamic.

Phenduka’s exit from the station, following backlash over comments he made on Podcast and Chill, left many listeners disappointed.

Despite the controversy, he earned an award nomination shortly after leaving, proving just how impactful he remains in the industry.

Reacting to a post about Sol, Sizwe tweeted, “Nami ngiyaSola.”

The clever line immediately caught attention, with users interpreting it as a genuine sign that Dhlomo misses the energy Sol brought to the show.

X users filled the comments with their thoughts, and many agreed with him.

One listener, @Ayavela99, shared: “The ladies are very good but the energy between Sol, Mfundo, Mpho and yourself was a once in a lifetime.”

Another user, @francePETERSEN, weighed in by saying, “LOL Mpho and JJ have recovered well from the first weeks and the show has kept its pedigree.”

Others simply applauded the wordplay, including @BearededPriest1 who commented: “I see what you did there.”
