Zama Ngcobo lands foot on TV

Zama Ngcobo had a hard time on radio. Luckily, she has been able to find something still in the media industry, this time on TV.
Of her return to TV, she talks of how blessed she is to have returned to TV not only as a presenter but also as the content creator.
“As much as I can act and I can do all other things, I started as a presenter. To have created a property that is my own from scratch, and I am not hired by anyone, is a milestone,” Zama says.
Her new show, Leading Citizens, is produced by her production company, Pholoba TV. It follows extraordinary South Africans who are living their best lives.
“The show is basically my story. I am from KwaZulu- Natal and I came to Johannesburg to make it big. I have realised not everyone who is successful in Johannesburg is from Johannesburg.
“So I figured why not follow the people I can find who are doing great things. I started shadowing people, following them and seeing what I can get out of them.”
Zama feels she has achieved all she set out to do and is thus not thinking of returning to radio.
