A few moons ago, fans were doing happy dances as Cathy Mohlahlana made a triumphant return from her maternity leave. Juggling the demanding world of news anchoring with raising twins, she basically had a cape invisible to the rest of us mere mortals.
As the senior news anchor for Newzroom Afrika, Cathy lit up our screens with the grace and charisma only she could muster. Hosting the primetime bulletin between 18h00 and 21h00 on channel 405, she became the news queen we didn’t know we needed.
But, plot twist alert! This evening, Cathy will be bidding goodbye to Newzroom Afrika. The reason for her departure remains a well-kept secret, wrapped in mystery and tied with a journalistic bow. In her farewell message, Cathy kept it classy, wishing the channel all the best in its future endeavours.
In her own words, “Tonight will be my final broadcast with Newzroom Afrika. I have decided to leave the organization, and I continue to wish them well. I would not be who I am without your support as viewers. You have given me more than I could ever ask for. THANK YOU.” That’s how you drop the mic, or in this case, the news anchor desk.
Cathy’s journalistic journey is like a thrilling saga—she’s hosted for eNCA, rocked the evening bulletin on eTV, and covered headline-grabbing stories from Nelson Mandela’s life to the Oscar Pistorius Murder trial. With over ten years in the national broadcast journalism arena, she’s not just an anchor; she’s a storytelling guru.
From winning the National Press Club Radio Journalist of the Year Award to being part of the CNN Journalism Fellowship, Cathy’s career is a highlight reel of excellence. Destiny Magazine even crowned her one of the “Top 40 women under 40” in 2015. With a degree in Politics and International Relations from Wits University, she’s not just breaking news; she’s making it.
So, here’s to Cathy—may your next adventure be as captivating as the stories you’ve shared with us. News won’t be the same without you, but we’re eagerly awaiting the headlines you create next.
