Is PAPA NASTY (John Maloba) Leaving RADIO CITIZEN? Find Out Here!

The Dread Beat Show maestro has ruled the airwaves for a decade or so with reggae music since the inception of the show in Radio Citizen.

However, they say everything with a beginning always has an end to it. Dread Beat Show is not an exception.

On his facebook page, John Maloba aka Papa Nasty took issue with the fact that his show will be scrapped on Sunday to allow the live broadcast of a football match between AFC Leopards and Tusker Fc.

Initially it looks like the show will not be aired only on Sunday but as you read through Maloba’s post, it is clear that he is aware that the show is likely to be completely scrapped from Radio Citizen’s programme.

Maloba is not happy with this as he puts it here:

His fans were also quick to express their displeasure at the fact that their favourite show is not given enough attention by the head of programmes in the station. Some even threatened to switch allegiance to other radio stations that play reggae music. Such include Radio Maisha, Radio Jambo and Milele FM.

Below are some of Papa Nasty’s fans’ comments:

So why is Papa Nasty’s Dread Beat Show not receiving the support it has garnered for the last 10 years it has been on air? Is it that Radio Citizen is putting more emphasis on sports to match up with the likes of Radio Jambo who exclusively give much time to sports? Or, could it be that Mzazi Willy M Tuva’s Mseto Xtra Show is gaining fame with the fanbase than Dread Beat Show?

These are the questions that have left Papa Nasty’s followers raging with anger at this latest revelation.
