As South Africa celebrates Youth Month, we’re turning up the volume on young
trailblazers making waves across the country. First up is none other than the
dynamic, fearless, and unapologetically authentic Andy Maqondwana – a
powerhouse on Kaya 959’s airwaves. With her infectious energy, sharp wit, and
relatable charm, Andy isn’t just hosting a show – she’s shaping culture, sparking
conversations, and inspiring a generation. Phemelo sits down with Andy and we get
to know the vibrant voice behind the mic.
