Former Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba faced a legal blow today as the Gauteng High Court dismissed his urgent application to prevent the airing of a revealing interview with his ex-wife, Nomachule Mngoma, on Showmax. The ruling clears the way for the streaming platform to broadcast the episode, which promises to expose intimate and controversial details about their marriage.
Gigaba had sought to block the interview, claiming it infringed on his dignity and amounted to exploitation of his private life for public spectacle. However, the judge ruled that there were insufficient grounds for an interdict, allowing Mngoma’s account to reach a broad audience.
Insiders suggest the interview contains explosive allegations, including claims of infidelity, pornography addiction, and misuse of state resources during their marriage — accusations that Gigaba has strongly denied. This latest development adds another twist to a highly publicized and often contentious divorce saga that has captured public attention.
Showmax, known for its candid celebrity interviews, is expected to attract significant viewership with this episode, further fueling the ongoing drama between two prominent figures in South African public life.
