Ntsiki Mazwai, a well-known poet and outspoken public figure, has criticized South Africa’s Minister of Sports, Arts, and Culture, Gayton McKenzie, for his vocal support of media personality Unathi Nkayi.

Mazwai pointed out that audio evidence and other proofs clearly showed that Unathi Nkayi’s claims against Sizwe Dhlomo were baseless.
“No guys… we literally heard live audio and saw Unathi lying about another man. In a country that struggles with GBV and false allegations, this cannot be ignored.”
Gayton McKenzie’s Support for Unathi Nkayi
Minister Gayton McKenzie has publicly pledged to help Unathi Nkayi rebuild her career following her fallout with Sizwe Dhlomo, which led to her dismissal from Kaya FM.

Sizwe Dhlomo, who has been vocal about his side of the story, previously stated that he had no regrets about Unathi Nkayi’s dismissal. Without the audio recordings and other evidence to refute her claims, Dhlomo’s career could have been irreparably damaged. The case has reignited discussions about the consequences of false accusations and the need for accountability, especially in the public eye.
