MaMkhize Trends Amid Renewed Scrutiny Over Past Allegations and Corruption Links
Shauwn Mhize, popularly known as MaMkhize, has become a trending topic on social media after KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi connected her to allegations of corruption and links to an assassination attempt on a SARS official investigating her tax issues. This controversy has reignited public scrutiny of her questionable business dealings and past transgressions.
Connections to the Criminal Underworld
Recent reports link MaMkhize to alleged corrupt businessman Vusimuzi “Cat” Matlala, raising concerns about her networks. Police Commissioner Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi highlighted potential ties to organized crime.
While MaMkhize denies any wrongdoing, the connection has fueled rumors of deeper corruption. She stated, “I will never entertain the noise of the world. I live in my own world with my own rules.”
Furthermore, Minister of Police Senzo Mchunu has faced scrutiny for alleged associations with criminal elements. Critics are questioning the integrity of those in power linked to MaMkhize.

Past and Present Allegations Resurface
MaMkhize’s legal troubles span years, including a notorious tax evasion case. She was previously ordered to pay R37 million in taxes, illustrating ongoing financial scrutiny.
In an incident last year, a SARS official was reportedly targeted in an assassination attempt linked to MaMkhize’s case. This raised alarm about the extreme measures connected with her ongoing investigations.
Despite her controversies, MaMkhize insists on her hard work and achievements. She remarked, “Why can’t people look at me as a young black woman who has worked very hard?” This statement reflects her defensive approach amidst allegations.
