Radio personality Penny Ntuli has set social media alight after revealing that a guest appearance on Inanda FM led to a surprise job offer from a KZN-based radio station. In a candid Instagram post shared on Wednesday, 2 September 2026, Ntuli told her followers she had already sat down to negotiate contract terms and was now waiting for an answer.

Ntuli was invited to co-host Inanda FM's Lunch Time Fix Show alongside Mr Thulani Zondi, known on air as Nondaba, as part of the station's Women's Month programming. It was during that same Friday that her phone rang with an offer she clearly did not see coming.

Penny Ntuli's rocky road back to radio

The post carries extra weight given Ntuli's well-documented turbulence in the industry. She made headlines in 2024 when she publicly revealed she had been earning just R2,800 a month at Gagasi FM, a disclosure that sent shockwaves through South African media circles and sparked a national conversation about how radio personalities are compensated. After parting ways with Gagasi, she moved to a Johannesburg-based station, but that chapter closed sooner than expected.

The prospect of landing a KZN role, with the added flexibility of remaining in Johannesburg, appears to have resonated deeply with her supporters, who flooded the comments section with well-wishes.

Penny seemingly celebrates Ayanda Melansi's suspension

In a previous report from Briefly News, Penny Ntuli posted a cryptic video on X after news broke that Gagasi FM broadcaster Ayanda Melansi was reportedly suspended.

The video appeared to reference Penny being escorted out of a former workplace by someone, only for the same thing to later happen to that person.
