Ngizwe Mchunu Breaks Silence After Being Denied Entry to Kwa Mai-Mai: “I Stand by What I Said”
Former Ukhozi FM radio presenter Ngizwe Mchunu was denied entry to Kwa Mai-Mai in Johannesburg
He made offensive statements during his homophobic rant, and even asked members of the LGBTQIA+ community to leave the country
Ngizwe Mchunu has since spoken out after the incident, but he has not backed down and has made more threats against Somizi
Controversial Ngizwe Mchunu has suffered the consequences of his homophobic rant. Despite the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) launching an investigation against the former radio personality, he is unbothered and unapologetic.
The media personality and self-proclaimed president of the bhinca nation was denied entry to Kwa Mai-Mai in Johannesburg. This follows his homophobic rant in which he mentioned the popular eatery and expressed disapproval of queer people dining there.
Ngizwe Mchunu hits back
After he was told that he would not be granted entry to Kwa Mai-Mai, Ngizwe made another homophobic video. However, his main target was Somizi Mhlongo.
“I am still standing tall. I am not going to pretend, straightforward,” he said adding that he was not shaken by the incident.
He then challenged Somizi Mhlongo to speak to the LGBTQIA+ community.
“I am challenging you to ask you people, because you damaged the nation by dating both men and women. Therefore, we will not be told by you what we can and cannot do. Ask your people to apologise to me and then leave the Zulu culture.”
Mchunu did not stop there; he then made a worrying statement, which seemed to be inciting violence against the Zulu gay people, who wear the traditional attire. “As the president of the bhinca nation, I declare that gay people must leave the Zulu culture and create their own.”
