About the new presenting trio, Yolisa Phahle, the channel director for special interest channels at M-Net, said: “We were looking for presenters who know what it’s like to be in the spotlight themselves and are able to bring that to the inserts and interviews they do, in a relaxed and informal fashion, ProVerb, Nandi and Dineo fit that bill just perfectly and we’re thrilled that they are going to be taking All Access Mzansi into a fantastic new world.”
