Peter Ndoro Keeps His Job

Peter Ndoro Keeps His Job. Last week, Peter Ndoro mistakenly said during a bulletin that President Cyril Ramaphosa had died, instead of Zimbabwe’s opposition Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai. The error was trending on social media with the Minister of Human Settlements Lindiwe Sisulu saying that Ndoro had been dismissed.

The SABC, however has released a statement denied that Ndoro has been fired, but instead he has been given time to rest. Ndoro would be taking a break from the show because he is fatigued and needed some time to rest. The news anchor has subsequently apologized to Ramaphosa.

@SABCTVNews would like to reiterate that @peterndoro has not been fired. He has been allowed some time to rest at his own request. We look forward to seeing him on our screens soon.
