Steve Hofmeyr could face more than a Twitter roasting, as Van Damme intends to lay charges
19 June 2019
A contentious tweet by controversial singer Steve Hofmeyr could get him more than a few hundred retweets and likes.
DA Member of Parliament Phumzile van Damme on Wednesday confirmed to News24 that she was "talking to lawyers to formulate a proper affidavit", whereafter she would lay charges against the Afrikaans musician over his tweet.
Hofmeyr would later claim that his tweet - which tagged both Van Damme and Ambassador to Denmark Zindzi Mandela - was about the definition of a public servant and "self-defence".
