Per the report, Radebe claims to have strong links in the ruling ANC party and could have Wings kidnapped and injured. Although the problem started when they were organising the Burna Boy concert, Wings also accused Radebe of stealing millions from their business.

He said he noticed that he noticed that Radebe had stolen more than R7 million from their business. Wings also added that that was when the threats started. He said he has been harrassed on the phone, via emails and even through text messages.

Radebe allegedly paying people to lie against Wings

The issue is more complicated than it looks. According to the papers, Abraham Radebe is reportedly hiring people to open fake cases against Wings. The businessman allegedly paid people as much as R50K to have them open the cases.

Speaking exclusively with Briefly News, Wings said the court battle is still far from over. The businessman also shared copies of the criminal case and protection order against Radebe. He said:

"He is now resorting to telling everyone I'm a scammer and that I stole money from him even though the police have already seen the proof that I deposited R7.45m into his business account and he spent the money on his lifestyle versus spending it on the construction job site we supposedly had together. I think he learned this tactic from Sedote who did the same thing after I found out he stole $1.6m from me. He is also throwing around Big names, claiming he's powerful and that the government officials will never allow him to be arrested.

"I’ve also attached the letter of demand served upon him and the screenshots of his lawyer offering my lawyer a settlement of R2m, which I turned down because he needs to pay me everything he stole from me just like Sedote. I discovered that he used R7.45m on other job sites that he was working on, so I've had to demand funds from him on several job sites.
