Ntshavheni faces legal action over misinformation claims against Solidarity

May 19, 2025

|

Cape Times

MINISTER in the Presidency, Khumbudzo Ntshavheni, has not indicated whether she will withdraw her assertions about the spreading of misinformation by Solidarity, but stated that she will consult with her legal team if she receives any legal papers from the organisation.

- MASHUDU SADIKE

Solidarity said it had launched legal action against the minister accusing her of defamation over her claims of spreading misinformation.

The minister has been given seven days to withdraw a media statement made on March 27, 2025, and offer an unconditional apology to Solidarity for reputational damage.

In a formal legal notice served to Ntshavheni, the organisation's CEO Dirk Hermann demanded that she apologise or face defamation and treason charges; failure to do so would result in the union pursuing more legal charges.

The controversy began when Ntshavheni accused Solidarity and AfriForum of waging a "misinformation and disinformation campaign" during their joint visit to the US.
