In 2019, Marawa was laid off by sports channel, Supersport. What shocked many is the manner in which the legendary media personality was fired. He was sent a text message a few hours before going live. Marawa was told not to bother coming to work. He then decided to start his own sports channel on YouTube after his fans urged him to do so.
