Why did Minnie Dlamini sue MacG and Sol Phenduka?

Minnie Dlamini filed a R 2.5 million lawsuit against podcasters MacGyver “MacG” Mukwevho and Sol Phenduka in the Equality Court in early August 2025. The case centres on a series of offensive, sexist, and demeaning comments made on their show, Podcast and Chill with MacG. The most recent one was when MacG mentioned that maybe Minnie Dlamini's relationships did not last long because her private parts had a bad smell, following her breakup with Dr Brian Monaisa, after a few weeks of dating.
