The power of an oath and the implications of false testimony under oath.

Loading player...
Lukho Mkwedi Phuthi and Mr. Pholoso Seakamela discuss the power of an oath in the context of the ongoing Madlanga Commission, officially known as the Judicial Commission of Inquiry into Criminality, Political Interference, and Corruption in the Criminal Justice System in South Africa. The commission, chaired by retired Constitutional Court Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga, began hearings in September 2025 to investigate allegations of corruption and political interference involving senior police, politicians, prosecutors, intelligence operatives, and the judiciary.

In this setting, the power of an oath is critical as witnesses at the commission are legally bound to tell the truth. False testimony under oath (perjury) carries serious legal consequences and can obstruct justice. The discussions underline the importance of integrity and accountability in such high-profile inquiries, highlighting how truthful testimonies under oath are fundamental to the commission’s mission to restore credibility in the justice system and expose wrongdoing. The commission has heard testimony revealing sophisticated organised crime infiltration and political collusion, making truthful and honest evidence critical.​
