We pledged hundreds more boots on the ground, and we’ve done it! ✅

No person forfeits their right to life, dignity or their status as a human being because they are alleged to have violated a law. This is a defining feature of our Constitution that sets us apart as a nation of due process and the rule of law.

We will not tolerate anyone using allegations related to any person’s nationality or immigration status to violate their inherent human dignity and our Constitution, or to inflict damage on our society. It simply cannot and will not stand.

In Nyanga and Gugulethu, we're fixing the roads on the Cape Flats 💙👏

While the roads of Soshanguve and Mabopane are forgotten by the ANC-led government 💔

We call on City of Tshwane to restore electricity and water services at the DBE head offices or face legal action.

I can confirm that the national Department of Basic Education’s account with the City of Tshwane is not owing a single cent.

There was no legal basis for the disconnection!

The DBE does not run schools. This is the function of the provinces. The City knew that this was not our debt. But disconnected us anyway. This has financial implications for the Department when it should be spending all its resources on our learners and the education system.

We opened the new and improved Khayelitsha public library. It is beautiful! 📚

We want every person in Cape Town to have the dignity and opportunity that comes with community facilities like this. This library will be a safe space for kids to read and study, while internet access gives more residents the opportunity to get skills and apply for jobs.

This is one of 5 public libraries in Khayelitsha, and 101 libraries across Cape Town, more than any other city in SA. 👏🇿🇦

This is a project to break the South African state, built of top of years of narrative that mainstream political leaders in the GNU too often colluded in fostering. Now, they must stop it, with both law enforcement action and unambiguous political messaging. https://t.co/oM3c43BG6Y

GOOD MORNING SOUTH AFRICA!!! 🥹🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

@BafanaBafana have just qualified for the knockout stage of the FIFA World Cup for the first time ever 👏🔥🔥

[Geordin Hill-Lewis @geordinhl]

Let’s show the very best of what it means to be South African, not the worst.

South Africans have real frustrations, however violence and chaos is not the solution.

While some stoke hatred around illegal immigration, we must uphold the rule of law, protect the lives of civilians and live out the values that make our country great.

🚨 Mitchells Plain Safety Operation: Amazing work by our Cape Town Metro Police for raiding and confiscating these drugs in Woodlands today. 👏

These gangsters are hurting our families and communities. SAPS needs our help to fight crime!

[Geordin Hill-Lewis @geordinhl]

🚨 JP and I joined Cape Town’s Metro Police and LEAP on patrol in the streets of Delft, as they did drug raids and searched for illegal guns.

SAPS need their help, that’s why we will build Cape Town’s Metro Police Detective Unit to ensure these criminals are convicted and out of our communities. #TakeCapeTownForward 🇿🇦👏

🚨 Beacon Valley Safety Patrol: This evening I joined Neighbourhood Watch groups, Cape Town's Metro Police and SAPS on a safety patrol in Beacon Valley, Mitchells Plain.

Neighbourhood Watch volunteers are the backbone of the community. I’m so grateful for them, and for all these Officers, for their work to make our streets safer ✅👏
