“He Was Chosen by God”: Afrikaner Man Sends Biblical Message to General Mkhwanazi

• A Christian content creator shared a powerful message directed at KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi
• The spiritual message comes as Mkhwanazi faces intense scrutiny after exposing alleged corruption within South Africa
• South Africans praised the man's faith-filled support, with many calling for divine protection over the general

A Christian content creator has touched hearts across South Africa after sharing a deeply spiritual message of support for embattled KwaZulu-Natal police commissioner Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi.

The TikTok user @otradio5, who regularly shares Christian content on the platform, posted the powerful video on 12th July with a caption filled with biblical references:

"Deut 5 / 12 Prov 31 v 9 Heb 5 v 12 - 14 John 7 v 24 2 Cor 6 v 14 Isa 54 v 17 Nrs 6 v 24 - 26."

Speaking directly to the camera, the man delivered what he called a prophetic message to General Mkhwanazi, acknowledging his stance that "there can never be peace between a police officer and a criminal." The content creator connected this statement to biblical scripture, specifically referencing 2 Corinthians 6:14 about the incompatibility between righteousness and lawlessness.

In the video, the Christian man offered several biblical verses as guidance and protection for Mkhwanazi, including Isaiah 54:17, which states:

"No weapon that's formed against you shall prosper."

He also shared the blessing from Numbers 6:24-26, asking that the Lord bless, protect, and show favour to the general.

The content creator emphasised the importance of staying obedient to God's rules and judging righteously, quoting Proverbs 31:9 about defending the rights of the poor and needy. His message concluded with well wishes and prayers for divine blessing over Mkhwanazi's mission.

General Mkhwanazi faces corruption allegations

The video comes at a critical time when Mkhwanazi has found himself at the centre of a national controversy. According to the South African Government, President Cyril Ramaphosa recently established a judicial commission of inquiry after Mkhwanazi made allegations about a criminal syndicate infiltrating law enforcement and intelligence structures. The general claimed that politicians, police officers, prosecutors, and even members of the judiciary are involved in a sophisticated drug cartel operation.

Community police forums across Durban have rallied behind Mkhwanazi, with many viewing him as a beacon of integrity in the fight against corruption. The Umbilo and Malvern CPFs have both issued statements of unwavering support, praising his bravery in speaking truth to power despite the personal risks involved.

Ramaphosa establishes commission of inquiry

Acting Deputy Chief Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga will chair the Commission of Inquiry, assisted by Advocates Sesi Baloyi SC and Sandile Khumalo SC. It will investigate claims that criminal syndicates have infiltrated law enforcement and justice bodies, including SAPS, the NPA, the State Security Agency, the judiciary and metro police. The panel may assess evidence, recommend that officials be suspended, refer cases for immediate criminal investigation and advise on disciplinary or prosecutorial steps. It must submit interim reports at three and six months and a final report to the President, the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Chief Justice. Its recommendations will inform reforms to protect police independence and national security.
