No one in SA trusts law enforcement. They can be bought too easily. How far is the Phalaphala matter..... Yep, while de Rhuyter had failed to keep the lights on, your minister of Police has spectacularly failed at bringing crime down…yet Cele gets to stick around. I don’t see MbalulaFikile or GwedeMantashe1 putting pressure on the police minister 😡
