Simphiwe Dana has threatened to take legal action against Ntsiki Mazwai

Following a slough of damning social media posts. Ntsiki went on a twitter rant claiming Simphiwe Dana slept her way to the top.

Here’s a statement from Simphiwe Dana:

"It has been noted that Simphiwe Dana has been at the receiving end of Ntsiki Mazwai’s tweets from Monday 01 February 2016 with tweets defaming her character.

There are various tweets that imply that Simphiwe Dana is an alcoholic and has slept her way to the top, Simphiwe distances herself from these tweets as they are false and are defamatory.

Moving forward, Simphiwe Dana will be taking legal action against Ntsiki Mazwai for her tweets, as they may cause irreparable reputational damage to her personal brand and that of other brands that are in partnership with Ms Dana.

This is not the message that we want to send out to the young future leaders of South Africa and Africa as a whole about Simphiwe Dana’s character.

Simphiwe Dana stands for hard work, ambition, dedication, perseverance and the right support to become successful as is proven by her social activities and involvement."
