End of an era for Lotus FM stalwarts
By Taschica Pillay
Durban - Legends of radio this week bid farewell to fans and colleagues at Lotus FM.
Among those who have left a legacy at the 38-year-old radio station were Sagren Naidoo, Suresh Harilal, Byron David, Tansen Nepaul and Deon Chetty.
Over 600 employees left the SABC on Wednesday, among them 346 employees who had opted for voluntary severance packages, while 275 people were in positions that were now redundant. This was after the public broadcaster concluded its Section 189 retrenchment process.
Naidoo, who started at the station in 1989 as a senior music compiler, said he didnât realise the impact he had made until he received calls this week from listeners.
