Hope Temba

Hope Tha Duchess

heHope Temba aka Tha Duchess is a Media Personality whose love for radio started at a very tender age. While most kids would spend hours on end watching TV or playing outside, she spent a lot of time listening to her dad's vast music collection. This includes legends such as James Brown, Isaac Hayes, The Beetles, Nina Simone, Eric Clapton, Aretha Franklin and many more. Having being exposed to so many genres of music, she would often take her father’s tapes to record her personal music favourites over the existing songs and this often got her into trouble. Nonetheless those moments were only the beginning of her love for music and radio.  

Her professional radio career started in 2008. She made her first debut in Kitwe. This was the kick start to her media presence on Zambian radio.

Aside being a lover of music, Hope is just as passionate about academia and holds a Diploma in Business Administration and a Diploma in Marketing.

She is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communication.

In her spare time Duchess enjoys traveling, landscaping, gardening, horseback riding and nature photography.

Hope currently hosts The Phoenix Breakfast Show with Chimweka on Phoenix FM which is a show that airs Monday to Fridayday between 6am and 9am .
