Loyiso Gola
Loyiso Gola (born 16 May 1983)〔 is a South African stand-up comedian. He is the co-creator and anchor of the late-night satirical news television series ''Late Nite News with Loyiso Gola'' on e.tv and eNCA which was launched in 2010. In 2012 he was named one of ''Mail & Guardian''s 200 Young South Africans, in the Media & Film category. ''Men's Health'' describes Gola as having "divisive mass appeal" due to the openly critical nature of his humour, and being "a genuine thinker masquerading as a fool and the reluctant voice of a cynical generation". His younger brother Lazola Gola is also a comedian.
