Michelle Craig Replaces Bhavna Singh On News Day

Michelle Craig is now officially the female co anchor on eNCA's News Day. This follows the sudden departure of Bhavna Singh from the channel after more than five years.

Michelle is of course not new to eNCA viewers. She has been a Cape Town based reporter and anchor for a while now, anchoring the now cancelled eNews Late Edition and eNews Prime Time on weekends for eTV, while acting as a fill in on News Day when both Andrew Barnes and Bhavna Singh were out.

Uncle Thinus is reporting that the cuts at eNCA is due to financially tough times that the channel is currently experiencing and that when an Bhavna's contract came up for renewal, the country's most watched news channel simply opted to not renew. 

Meanwhile, Bhavna just doesn't seem to be adjusting to life without covering the news. Though she may no longer be on television regularly, she live tweeted today's vote of no confidence motion that played out in parliament.
