In a twist that’s stirring both political and entertainment circles, EFF Member of Parliament Sihle Lonzi has raised suspicions about a potential personal link between Deputy Minister Mmapaseka Steve Letsike and Munaka Muthambi—a figure reportedly ousted from the same controversial podcast that has recently grabbed headlines.
Lonzi believes that this alleged connection could explain why Deputy Minister Letsike has been so adamant about holding popular podcast host MacG accountable for his recent comments about media personality Minnie Dlamini.
The insinuation is that Letsike’s stance may be more personal than principled, especially if she shares family ties with Muthambi, who was previously removed from the show under murky circumstances.
However, Deputy Minister Letsike has publicly denied any familial relationship with Muthambi, dismissing the claim as baseless.
As questions swirl and speculation mounts, this story is quickly becoming a focal point in the ongoing clash between political influence and media freedom.
