The MK Partyβs youth league is set to stage a picket at the police headquarters in Pretoria this morning, rallying behind KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi following his explosive allegations of criminal conduct by high-ranking officials β including Police Minister Senzo Mchunu.
The demonstration comes in the wake of a growing political storm triggered by Mkhwanaziβs claims, which have sent shockwaves through law enforcement and government circles. While the details of the allegations have not been fully disclosed to the public, their serious nature has sparked immediate reactions from across the political spectrum.
The MK Party youth league has made its stance clear, saying it firmly supports Mkhwanazi and views his actions as courageous and necessary in the fight against corruption and political interference within the police service. The picket is expected to draw significant attention, both for its symbolism and its timing β as tensions around accountability and integrity within South Africaβs security forces continue to mount.
As pressure builds, all eyes are on Pretoria today β not just to see who shows up to support Mkhwanazi, but also to see how the state responds to an increasingly vocal demand for transparency at the highest levels of policing.
