Gagasi FM has announced the departure of DJ Vumar from the station.<\/p>\n
DJ Vumar, real name Vumar Buthelezi, joined Gagasi FM in 2012 hosting V Sessions and Sunday Sundowners. He has since cemented his name as the host of Sunrise Sessions during weekdays as well as the Dance Cabin at weekends.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI joined Gagasi FM as a young man and spent my formative years here until I became an experienced broadcaster. Many of the people I\u2019ve met \u2014 colleagues and management alike \u2014 became friends and even mentors,\u201d said DJ Vumar in a statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe guidance, opportunities and mentorship I received were invaluable, shaping me into the broadcaster I am today. Gagasi FM will always hold a special place in my heart. I will keep everyone in my prayers and will miss the GNation family deeply, especially the unique connection the station has with KZN and its listeners.<\/p>\n
\u201cGagasi FM allowed me to discover who I am and what I am called to do, and for that I am forever grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n
Speaking to TshisaLIVE, DJ Vumar said after being involved in a near fatal accident in March on his way to work, he wanted to take a break from the mic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m taking a break. Maybe next season we can talk. Plus just recovered from a terrible car accident I had in March, a break is well deserved right now.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gagasi FM has announced the departure of DJ Vumar from the station.
