“Ollah made a smart move his exit was calculated because he was not going to escape the gallows at the pending hearing which involves abuse of advertising revenue in the same fashion like Tich Mataz who also left the station under such circumstances.
“If indeed he is guilty I don’t blame him but authorities that be for probably not paying adequate commission.
“Remember his show is one of the biggest shows at Star FM and major cash cow for advertising revenue,” said our source.

DJ Ollah 7 waxed lyrical and showered praises and gratitude to his supervisors and co-workers at Star FM. With tears in his eyes, he expressed his gratitude to each colleague separately and acknowledged the trust and encouragement he had gotten from the station’s managers.

“I thank my colleagues and the bosses at Star FM for trusting me, believing in me, and giving me an opportunity to shine at the station,” said DJ Ollah 7 in touching farewell remarks which left some co-workers literally shedding tears.

Star FM management however sanitized the exit with a flowery statement inserted hereunder:

Olla 7 has not yet revealed his next move amid speculation that he might spend some time redirecting his energy to his spiritual calling where he reportedly possess healing powers.

He also has a thriving Facebook page and can easily revive and commercialise it (in an internet radio set up) just like what South African broadcaster Thabo Molefe aka TBO Touch did when he left METRO fm.
