“Penny Ntuli Shares Why She Declined a High-Paying Radio Job Offer”
Hey there, radio lovers! If you’ve been keeping up with the South African entertainment scene, you might have heard the buzz surrounding the talented Penny Ntuli. This award-winning radio personality has been making headlines not just for her incredible talent on air, but also for her bold decisions when it comes to her career. Recently, she opened up about a new job offer she received and why she turned it down, even though it came with a pretty impressive salary, according to Briefly.
For those who might not know, Penny is a former presenter at Gagasi FM, where she famously revealed that she was being paid a mere R2,800. Can you believe that? It stirred quite the controversy and put the spotlight on how some radio personalities are underpaid in the industry. After her departure from Gagasi FM, Penny quickly became a hot topic, and it seems like her story is far from over.
In her latest social media post, Penny shared that she was approached by another radio station with an enticing job offer. But here’s the kicker: instead of jumping at the chance for a higher paycheck, she decided to decline. Why? Well, it turns out that her loyalty and gratitude towards her current station, Jozi FM, played a huge role in her decision. She expressed her appreciation for the CEO, uBab Njomane, who supported her during her transition and provided her with opportunities that helped her grow as a radio personality.

Penny wrote, “I’m an Award Winning Radio Personality today, kulomsebenzi, due to such exposure & omzala bam who witnessed loluhambo.” It’s clear that she values the journey she’s taken with Jozi FM and the relationships she’s built along the way. She doesn’t want to “gijimela lonke ibhodwe eliconsayo,” which translates to running after every shiny opportunity, and instead, she’s committed to staying put and continuing to grow with her current team for at least another year or two.
This level of integrity is refreshing in an industry where many might prioritize a bigger paycheck over loyalty and personal growth. Penny’s decision serves as a reminder that sometimes, it’s not just about the money; it’s about the experiences and the people who support you along the way.
In other news, Gagasi FM has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons lately, with reports that they’re considering legal action against Penny for her comments about her pay. It seems like the drama is far from over, but for now, Penny is focused on her future at Jozi FM and the exciting journey ahead.
