Radio Africa Group has threatened to sue its former presenter Shaffie Weru for breach of contract and negligence. This comes after the former Homeboyz Radio presenter threatened to sue Radio Africa for unfair and unlawful termination of his employment and demanded Sh21 million in damages. In its countersuit to Weru’s, Radio Africa Group and its subsidiary Homeboyz Radio 2017 Limited said it will be asking the court to award it damages of Sh150 million for loss of business and reputational damage to the companies’ 15-year-old and 20-year-old brands. Radio Africa further said Weru contravened its policies and his employment contract, and as per the terms of his contract such action led to the “forthwith” termination of his services. Radio Africa Group took a massive hit on its revenue after EABL publicly announced it was pausing all forms of advertising on Radio Africa programmes hosted by the three presenters.
