Newly appointed Minister of Sports, Arts, and Culture Gayton McKenzie has issued a stern response to a woman accusing him of being involved in dodgy dealings.
In events leading up to the seventh national government elections, the Patriotic Alliance leader has been in the public eye for quite a while. Aside from campaigning for the elections, a large part of his visibility was due to the disappearance of 6-year-old Saldanha resident Joshlin Smith, who was abducted from her home in Diazville in February.
Gayton and his party members later took the initiative to search for the primary school pupil and when all else failed, played an important role in ensuring that she gets justice.
However, a recent video made by TikToker Maryke Erasmus alleges that Gayton is involved in the 6-year-old’s disappearance.
According to the video, Maryke alleges that he purposely got involved in the case to make it seem as if he was the hero ahead of the elections.
Maryke further explained that Gayton was involved with the Illuminati and that stealing a child was part of was part of the ritual.
Meanwhile, Gayton has since responded to the allegations and says that legal action has been taken against Maryke as well as several others who have been spreading false narratives about him.
In a recent video, he said the following: “She will get her court papers. When you make serious allegations against people – there are 34 of them, and my lawyers dealt with them meticulously.”

The South African reports that Gayton has previously revealed that he and Kenny Kunene were previously approached by the Illuminati, however, he refused and declined the opportunity on two occasions.
He later shared that he was shocked when he was told that he and Kenny were the only few remaining politicians who have not joined.
