Social media has been buzzing with mixed reactions following General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi's explosive allegations against the police and top government officials, including the Minister of Police, Senzo Mchunu.

Mkwanazi did not end there; he reportedly laid criminal charges against Police Minister Senzo Mchunu after accusing him of disbanding a political killings task team to protect corrupt politicians during a press briefing on Sunday, 6 July 2025. According to Mkhwanazi, the corrupt syndicate has been working with top criminals and drug lords in several provinces across South Africa.

The Minister of Police has poured cold water on the allegations, accusing Mkhwanazi of making baseless accusations against him. President Cyril Ramaphosa also issued a statement calling the allegations a serious national security issue that is getting top attention.

Controversial poet Ntsiki Mazwai took to her X (formerly Twitter) page on Monday, 7 July 2025, to react to the news of General Mkhwanazi filing criminal charges against the Minister of Police. Ntsiki, who is known for sharing her unfiltered thoughts on political, social, and economic issues in Mzansi, shared a post seemingly supporting Mkhwanazi.
