Last year, Govender joined Martin Bester to talk about her most dangerous day on the job.
Someone tried to ‘klap’ her on set once. She said she was less scared and more shocked at the situation because the man took out his teeth before he attempted to hit her.
Govender started off the conversation by saying that she can't wait for the December holiday. "I normally go to Sun City for December with my family and I read a lot," she said.
"It's hard to switch off - you will wake up to new news every day - it's so hard to chill."
Govender shared her favourite story of the year with Martin Bester.
"My favourite story of the year is the story of the pool people. They promised a pool but never delivered the pool. People get more 'skelm' because they need more bucks," she revealed.
"I receive tons of emails and messages on a daily basis for people to investigate."
