Ntokozo Myeni’s (36) love for sport dates back from 1994 when he was just a little boy watching the world cup that was hosted at the United States of America. He also participated in various local football teams at Ngwelezane as a player.
Ntokozo matriculated at Mhawu High School at eThekwini where he got involved in various extra mural activities which developed his charector and boosted his confident as a public speaker as he use to play a role of being a programme director /Mc during school concerts and events.
During the 2010 World Cup that was hosted in South Africa, Mr Myeni zoomed in to his talent that some of his high school teachers and friends use to encourage him to persue which is radio! In 2015 he joined one of the biggest local radio stations at King Cetshwayo District, North Coast Radio as a sport presenter.
