Zambia’s celebrated artist, Ruth Ronnie, has spoken out with strength and clarity in response to sensationalized reports surrounding her ongoing court case. In a powerful public statement, she set the record straight, expressing both her pain and resilience as she continues to navigate years of bullying, harassment, and false narratives.
Ruth emphasized that she does not and has never produced explicit content. Instead, she revealed that her private life was violated when an ex-partner recorded her without consent, later using the footage in an attempt to intimidate and blackmail her. She described this as a deep violation of her privacy and dignity — one that has been twisted by harmful media coverage.
“Any attempt to suggest that I am connected to the production of explicit material is false, defamatory, and a further violation of my dignity,” Ruth declared.
Her statement also criticized the role of certain media houses in framing misleading stories that worsen the bullying and trauma she already faces. She vowed to take legal action against individuals or institutions spreading false claims or sensationalized accounts.
More than just clearing her name, Ruth’s words carried a larger message about gender-based violence (GBV) and the importance of compassion. She reminded the public that many women suffer in silence because of fear of judgment, humiliation, and relentless bullying — a cycle that has tragically cost lives.
“No woman, known or unknown, should be silenced or humiliated for seeking justice. Compassion and empathy are not just ideals, they save lives.”
For Ruth, this is more than a personal battle — it is a stand for dignity, truth, and justice. She urged the public to show kindness, empathy, and respect not only to her, but to every woman who dares to speak out against abuse.
As she closed her statement, Ruth expressed gratitude to her supporters and reminded us all that empathy can save lives.
This moment is a reminder that behind the headlines are real human beings with real struggles. Ruth Ronnie’s courage to face public scrutiny while demanding justice is not only inspiring — it’s a wake-up call for society to treat survivors of GBV with the seriousness and compassion they deserve.
