Ntsiki Mazwai apologises to Lady Zamar

Ntsiki Mazwai is currently at the center of a media storm as the social media streets share their varying opinions on her. The acclaimed poet recently revealed that the rape accusations which she had levelled against media veteran, DJ Fresh, were actually false.

The revelation led to DJ Fresh to allegedly seek legal action against Ntsiki Mazwai for falsely accusing him. But the matter took on a life of its own when women suggested that one false story does not change the fact that South Africa is one of the biggest rape capitals in the world, therefore the story of one “made up” story does not negate the thousands of true rape stories.

This is how #SueUsAll was born; from women taking a stand and suggesting if legal action is taken against Ntsiki Mazwai than sue all women that have accused men of rape, until they are proven guilty. It was this epiphany that led to Ntsiki apologizing to Lady Zamar on Twitter for suggesting that she lied about her accusations about her ex, Sjava.

You should be ashamed of this headline @SundayWorldZA. The use of words is violent. I want to see the content of the story tomorrow, but if this is how you’re selling it then there is a problem. A man klap’ing & dragging a woman at a time when GBV is rife?! Do better. #SueUsAll pic.twitter.com/j57PuS5aGO
