Speaking about the allegations and how it has been for him with Briefly News, Nota Baloyi said:

"Extortion is a serious offence & rather than give in to the demands of my blackmailer. I chose to hand myself in to the police to show them how confident I was in proving my innocence. The magistrate saw that it is in the interest of justice that I will be released on bail on condition that I do not contact my accuser, whom I last contacted on September 24, 2024, inviting her to an event.
"My legal team is proceeding with the extortion case once this current case is concluded. ⁠I’m encouraged by the support of the many boy mothers in South Africa & my critics seem to almost exclusively be EFF supporter’s bot who have been instructed to harass me. I will be taking legal action against them when the case is concluded as well as opening a case of crimen injuria against KayaFM presenter Sol Phenduka."
