For some time we heard the rumour that the 'hostess with the mostess', Nikki-Z had plan to leave HYPE-TV.

However for some strange reason we just dismissed it as another case of loose gossip, but it seems the rumours have manifested into reality. 876radio.com recently caught with the "Z" and asked her about the reason for her departure from the local cable station.

In and exclusive interview she told us that her resignation was tendered and became effective today (Feb.07) and there was no bad *lo** between, herself and the station, as they parted on amicable terms. "As a matter of fact we are all still good friends ...chuckle".

When asked the reason she said, "I have so many things happening in my life right now, and a lot of projects working on and therefore it was on this basis that I made the decision to leave HYPE, so now I can focus and devote more time to my other projects".

She declined to divulge the details, (she don't want it to get jinxed) but said we should just keep our eyes and ears to the streets as a lot will be unfolding in the coming months.

Of course we did ask if there is any chance of her working for the competitor she laughed and said "NO.. that was never a consideration". One things is certain for sure she will be missed from the UP & Live show, with her feisty yet charismatic attitude and we the family of 876radio.com would just like to take this opportunity to wish her all the best in her future endeavours.

This is another exclusive brought to you by the good folks at 876radio.com
