Musa Mthombeni has officially been announced as Shaka Sisulu’s replacement on a full-time basis on Trending SA.

Following Sisulu’s departure from the SABC 3 talk show in July, a number of noted guest-hosts have been vying for the coveted spot.

At the end Mthombeni scored the gig.

He will permanently join the all-female panelists of Pabi Moloi, Nina Hastie and Kuli Roberts from the first week of November.

The former child-star’s debut into the entertainment industry was as a YOTV presenter.
