"You gonna come back strong, my love. Your hater will be sitting in a naughty corner crying for a lollipop when you get back on air. I love you."

DebSeb1994 offered:

"Absolutely. I loved all your shows. Whether music or talk show, I was intrigued by your robust political perspective. I think people just can't handle women with strong opinions; they love them very subdued and straddling the fence! Not me; I really loved you on the radio!"

MbataneMatshaya encouraged her with:

"Chin up KG, there's so much around you! Including from KuGompo City!"

NotXJurist said:

"You were very rude in your show's shame. God answered; your unearned entitlement at SAfm was so disgusting, thanks to the new Station manager who took such a best decision ever. Of all anchors, I've never seen someone so rude to listeners like you. You got what you deserved."

Thato kept it simple:

"We love you, KG."
