South African Justice Minister Ronald Lamola rejects allegations made by ANC veteran Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma that he is involved in vote-buying. Lamola says the claims are not correct and calls on Dlamini-Zuma to retract the statements and issue an apology. He also warns that he may take legal action if the allegations are not withdrawn. The dispute centers on Dlamini-Zuma’s public accusation linking Lamola to conduct described as vote-buying, which Lamola disputes. The exchange highlights an ongoing internal political controversy within the ANC, with Lamola directly responding to the allegation through a demand for correction and a legal threat. The reporting indicates that Lamola is taking a formal position rather than engaging in further debate, focusing on the need for retraction and apology. No court filing or specific legal steps are detailed in the available information, but the warning suggests potential litigation or related legal remedies if the matter continues.
