Ncube one of the greatest broadcasters to ever emerge from Zimbabwe is now based in Chikomba West constituency.

Speaking in a video which has since gone viral, Ncube is visibly in distress.

He used to work for Radio 2 now Radio Zimbabwe during the 80s/ 90s.

Without the help of computers, yesteryear DJs like Ncube banked on their deep knowledge, natural talent and passion for music to create engaging and memorable line-ups.

The programmes the DJs churned out were top-notch, like Zviri muchinokoro, Dzakaita mukurumbira, Kwaziso, Engilikhethele zona, Radio 2 Top 20, and Chakafukidza Dzimba Matenga, Rova Ngoma Mtavara, Swerengoma—just to mention a few.
