Lerato Kganyago not owner of 12 On Hillel Villa & Spa, management clarifies
The management of 12 On Hillel Villa & Spa has issued a formal clarification denying claims that media personality Lerato Kganyago has any ownership interest in the luxury establishment.
In a statement released this afternoon, Tuesday, the hotel’s management addressed ongoing speculation and recent testimony before the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry, which had linked Kganyago to the property.
The management confirmed that corporate records filed with the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) show no directorial, shareholder, or proprietary connection between Kganyago and the hotel.
“Lerato Kganyago is not the owner of 12 On Hillel Villa & Spa, nor does she hold any ownership interest in the property,” the statement read. “Any prior suggestions to the contrary, including those from 2022 social media posts or reports, do not reflect the current and accurate ownership details.”
The hotel clarified that Kganyago’s Amour Restaurant, located on the premises, operates independently under a separate lease agreement. The business is said to be fully compliant with relevant regulations and has no overlap with the hotel’s management or governance.
Management expressed concern that “unfounded associations risk unfairly tarnishing reputations without evidence,” reiterating the establishment’s commitment to transparency and cooperation with authorities.
12 On Hillel Villa & Spa invited anyone seeking confirmation to verify ownership details directly through the CIPC.
