South Africa's suspended police minister Senzo Mchunu named Sithembiso Mshengu his spokesperson effective November 5. This appointment prepares Mchunu for testimony before the Madlanga Commission inquiry into misconduct allegations. President Cyril Ramaphosa suspended Mchunu in July 2025 following accusations of interfering with police operations and connections to criminal networks. Mshengu will manage all public communications during these legal proceedings.

Mshengu, a loyal African National Congress ally, previously served in the KwaZulu-Natal provincial legislature and supported Mchunu during internal party disputes years ago. He replaces Kamogelo Mogotsi, who handled media duties after July. Mchunu denies the allegations against him, calling them politically motivated. His legal team also challenged police raids on his properties last month. The commission hearings will examine claims about Mchunu disbanding an anti-crime unit without proper authority.
