The SABC axed its TruFM station manager Thobeka Buswana on Monday.
This comes a few days after the public broadcaster announced it will cut more than 1,000 jobs as part of its cost-saving measures and restructuring process.
SABC spokesperson Neo Momodu confirmed the move to DispatchLIVE on Tuesday, saying: “The SABC would like to confirm that Thobeka Buswana and TruFM have parted ways.
"The SABC will, however, not discuss the merits and reasons leading up to the termination of the contract with Ms Buswana, in light of the confidentiality of the contract entered into by both parties. We would also like to assure our loyal listeners that management has put the necessary mechanisms in place, to ensure continuity at the station."
Buswana did not respond to calls when contacted for comment on Tuesday...
