There seem to be New developments every day at the Newlands-based radio station ZiFM as popular host Ruvheneko Parirenyatwa has resigned.
Ruvheneko found herself in the cold waters as she was ‘promoted’ to an unnamed high position to Mighty Movies,thereby leaving her powerful position as ZiFM Programming Manager.
The announcement which was made by AB Communications also saw ZiFM station Manager Tendai Madondo being ‘promoted’ to Managing Director Regional Stations (Hevoi FM -Masvingo and 98.4 FM – Gweru)
Things have never been the same for the daughter of Health Minister since that infamous May 19 when she hosted #ThisFlag founder Pastor Evan Mawarire on her program The Platform.
In a letter provided by Zimbuzz sources and dated 31 October almost 24 hours before the parent company AB Communication publicly announced a reshuffle, she declined the new offer.
She cited ‘frustrating working environment’ as reasons for her resignation.
“This letter serves to thank you for growing me as a media practitioner since the early part of 2012 and to inform you that I am resigning from all/any titles within the AB Communications Group that have been offered me,” read her resignation
“As you know, a few months ago, I had informally requested in conversation that I would rather move to Mighty Movies than to stay at ZiFM Stereo.
“This was in direct response to the continued frustrating working environment that I have experienced at ZiFM Stereo in the past 10 months; experiences you are well aware of,” reads part of the resignation letter.
“Coincidentally, My Future is in television so this move made sense to us all.
“I note that you’ve offered me this very opportunity through a lateral move in management to Mighty Movies, commencing November 1, 2016, but as much as I appreciate this, I humbly decline your offer.
“Appreciating that the media space in Zimbabwe is very small, I trust that we will remain close and I hope that AB Communications will always be a reference point for me and that you know that I am only one call away.
“I wish AB Communications dominance, innovation, favour, excellence and all round success in this exciting new season.”
