The renowned broadcaster has described the controversial activist as a "bloodthirsty xenophobic creature who has built her public profile on fear and hostility directed at black Africans."

Nana Aba shared her views on Twitter/X on Thursday, July 2, 2026, a day after GHOne TV interviewed Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma following her involvement in the March and March anti-immigration protests in South Africa on Tuesday, June 30, 2026.

The broadcaster did not mince her words as she expressed her opinion about the South African activist and her actions towards immigrants living in her country.

In her post, Nana Aba raised questions about her former employer's decision to interview Jacinta, arguing that extending the courtesy of a balanced debate to individuals whom she claimed were actively spreading hatred was itself a form of harm.

She wrote:

"People who incite hatred against others don't deserve to be treated as though their views are just another side of a civilised debate."

The former GHOne TV presenter added that presenting such views as merely one perspective normalised intolerance and, in her words, "gross stupidity".
