Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi's contract as KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner is set to be renewed for another five years. His current contract ends in March 2026, and Premier Thami Ntuli has backed the renewal, citing Mkhwanazi's effective leadership in addressing high crime rates, including political killings and extortion.
Mkhwanazi has been praised for his no-nonsense approach to combatting crime in KZN. National Police Commissioner General Fannie Masemola has confirmed the renewal, pending final details and Mkhwanazi's signature.
The renewal reflects the provincial government's commitment to maintaining experienced leadership in law enforcement. Mkhwanazi's tenure has been marked by controversy, including allegations of political interference and corruption within SAPS, which are being investigated by the Madlanga commission and a parliamentary ad hoc committee.
