Bronwyn Keene-Young, e.tv's chief operating officer says, “Over the past nine years eNews has established itself as the most authoritative source of television news in South Africa. The 7pm bulletin is the most-watched English news in the country. The launch of the Zulu and Sotho bulletins at 6pm, builds on the success of the eNews brand and provides Zulu- and Sotho-speaking South Africans the opportunity to watch eNews in their home languages.”

eNews 6PM will be anchored in Sotho by Segametsi Moiloa, who viewers will recognise from Sunrise and Mabutho Ngcobo, who will anchor the Zulu segment.
