Just over four month after being fired from his popular Thursday Night Live with Marawa show on SuperSport, popular sport presenter Robert Marawa has launched his own online TV channel.
Marawa made headlines in May after he took to social media to claim that he had allegedly been told less than two hours before the start of his show not to come to work.
Supersport later confirmed that they had ended their relationship with the sports presenter.
In the wake of the fiasco, fans called on Marawa to start his own channel, and it seems like he was listening.
Marawa took to social media on Thursday to announce the launch of his YouTube Marawa.tv, which will air on YouTube.
Episode 1 – Thursday Night Live on Marawa TV, with guests Lebohang Manyama, Kennedy Tsimba & Brilliant Khuzwayo. Tonight the panel unpacks two of sport’s historic rivalries, happening on one day; those being Kaizer Chiefs vs. Orlando Pirates Derby and of course; the 2019 Rugby World Cup Final, between Springboks vs. England. Everything from predictions to tactics and game changers; will discussed in depth.
