FORMER Khozi FM presenter, Ngizwe Mchunu, has again entered into another mess after being convicted of discriminating against homosexuals and homosexuals. The Equality Court under the Johannesburg High Court acquitted Ngizwe.
The local Human Rights Commission, which was partnered with TransHope and Hate Crimes Working Group, and represented by Lawyers for Human Rights, confirmed that Ngizwe was found guilty of violating equality laws. The Commission said that it first tried to resolve the matter outside the court but to no avail.
It said that it has tried to resolve this disagreement with Ngizwe by urging him to stop publishing and distributing statements that discriminate against the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, and Asexual/Aromantic (LGBTQIA+) community and to remove the statements that provoke them from social media within 24 hours and to apologize and in his apology state what impact his statements had.
It added that Ngizwe refused to do what the Commission asked, he refused to apologise. Instead, he kept speaking publicly saying that he still stood by his speeches.
The Equality Court looked at a series of videos and documents published between September 30 and October 6, 2025 and the Mai Mai march in Johannesburg on October 5 last year.
The court found that Ngizwe’s conduct violated the rules in section 10,11 and 6.
The court ordered that Ngizwe be permanently banned from publishing statements that discriminate against homosexuals and that he be prohibited from organizing and participating in protests. He was also ordered to unconditionally apologize for that publication and to post it on his Facebook page for three months. Another information received by Ngizwe is to pay R250 000 to organizations that fight for equality and social integration and train on human rights.
The EFF leader, Mr. Julius Malema, has recently filed a defamation suit against him in the Gauteng High Court accusing him of taking money from foreign drug traffickers.
The court found Ngizwe guilty and ordered him to apologize and refrain from insulting Malema. Instead of following the court’s orders, Ngizwe continued to speak against Malema. This made Malema appeal to the court to imprison him for six months and not to be fined.
This matter is currently on the court’s table. Another organization of the Indian community, the South African Hindu Dharma Sabha (SAHDS), filed a case against Ngizwe for discriminating against this community in the Bhinca Nation Podcast broadcast on the Podcast and Chill Network on YouTube. It is not yet known whether the cow will give birth in this case.
