President Cyril Ramaphosa reaffirms his confidence in Police Minister Bheki Cele and the National Police Commissioner Fanie Masemola to fight crime in the country.

He was responding to a question that was submitted by Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema.

Malema wanted to know if Ramaphosa is still confident that Cele and Masemola are competent to get rid of crime, as the quarterly crime statistics revealed that crime remains stubbornly high and continues to escalate across the board in the country.“I am confident that the minister and national commissioner of police are competent and able to lead the government’s collaborative approach to building a South Africa where all people are and feel safe.

“Despite your promises to tackle gender-based violence and violent crime on your watch since becoming president murder has gone up, including the SAPS Act,” says Steenhuisen. Ramaphosa says government is implementing a number of measures to fight crime. This includes strengthening Community Policing Forums.“The fight against crime will not be advanced through the devolution of policing power, but by mobilising resource and capabilities working with communities. That, we believe is the best way we can continue to bring the levels of crime down,” says Ramaphosa/

He has assured Parliament of his commitment to reduce the size of cabinet. This is despite the addition of two new ministries during the recent executive shake-up.

As long as they butt out of his business of course.

It would surely be helpful if the Pres would quote instances of Cele excelling or even coping

Cele must have something on him he does f&ckall and hasn’t a clue, they must be in something together

🖤💚💛✊✊✊✊✊

And we as SAfricans confirm our commitment to bare arms and protect ourselves.....suck it up buttercup.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I hope he has a plan for the 20th as it is going to be a repeat of the EFFSouthAfrica and the zumariots looting of 2021.

1st protecting his CyrilRamaphosa dirty acts against his oath

Bullshit

Beki Chele, all 👀 on you.

Ramaphosa is the enemy of the workers He is anti - workers, you can see he has no interest for working class. It's going to be ugly. Nehawu is gatvol

There is no way he would't. Bheki does a good job on him. He is one of the few safe people in SA.

We are paying extra security now at Kasi for protection. Useless President 😏

Woza 2024,we will see if he's confident enough

Any hope on Com Cele?🤔🤔

It's in our hands SAns.....2024 depends purely on us.

Ramaphosa is loyal to his political party and the people therein. Ramaphosa is NOT loyal to South African people and the country. Cele, as the minister of police is the same - the country and her people have no priority. ANCsucks

Ramaphosa don't take us serious, we have a responsibility to vote anc out

The President who is out of touch with security of the people of Mzansi,Minister Cele failed the Country dismally in July 2021 Civil unrest amongst many other failures,well ANC comes first for Ramaphosa.
