Why Mkhwanazi Hired Advocate Skhakhane – Strategy or Legal Necessity?

TIMESTAMP: 00:00 ADVOCATE SKHAKHANE TAKES OVER 01:11 INTRODUCTION 01:56 REASONS WHY GEN MKHWANAZI APPOINTED ADV SKHAKHANE 04:36 WHY CALVIN IS INTERDICTED? 09:03 WHAT TO PROVE TO SUCCEED WITH AN INTERDICT 12:04 DEFENCES USED IN DEFAMATION CASES 13:41 ADV SKHAKHANE'S STRATEGY ON THIS CASE 15:25 GENERAL MKHWANAZI IS SENDING A VERY STRONG MESSAGE 18:48 CONCLUSION Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi has instituted a defamation case against Calvin Mathibili, and notably, he has briefed senior counsel — Advocate Skhakhane, regarded as one of the more formidable advocates in South Africa. This video breaks the matter down from a legal perspective — not speculation, not politics — but law. We explore: • What constitutes defamation under South African law • Whether the elements of defamation appear to be present • The importance of the “reasonable person” test • What an interdict is and why it may have been pursued • The legal defenses available to Mr. Mathibili (truth & public interest, fair comment, privilege) • Whether those defenses may realistically succeed • Why hiring senior counsel may signal strategic intent We also examine whether this case is purely about reputation — or whether it sends a broader message to other critics, including figures such as Paul O'Sullivan, who have publicly made allegations against Mkhwanazi. Importantly, we analyse whether repeated warnings allegedly issued before litigation strengthen the argument that court action became necessary. This is a legal breakdown designed to connect the dots based on publicly available information — not to advance any conspiracy or make unproven claims. ⚖️ Legal Disclaimer: This video is for analysis and commentary purposes only.
