Video of Malema attacking Mkhwanazi resurfaces

Outspoken former music executive Nota Baloyi reshared an old video clip of Julius Malema attacking General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi.

In the clip, the Economic Freedom Fighters' President promised to use legal action against KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Mkhwanazi, after he threatened to use combat against demonstrators during the national shutdown protests.

Malema argued that the constitution does not allow such to be used against protesting citizens. While addressing EFF supporters in Church Square in Pretoria, Malema said Mkhwanazi runs the SAPS like his underwear, because he makes changes as he wishes.

“The commissioner of KZN, we must take him to court after this march so that his utterances can be declared invalid and unconstitutional. He said in one of the press conferences that they have now abandoned the police service, and they are now going to use combat. He’s got no such option in the constitution,” Malema said as they prepared to march to the Union Buildings.
"Police service is not his underwear that he changes anyhow he wants," he continued, "Its a service to our people, not the combat."

In light of the recent presser on Sunday, 6 July 2025, Mkhwanazi made some shocking and disturbing allegations of corruption within the government. Nota Baloyi has been very vocal about his stance with Mkhwanazi, and this video came as no surprise. He captioned it "Lol," showing that he somewhat agrees with Malema's views.
