Regardless of how misguided someone may be, prioritize support over judgment when they seek serious help, especially in life-threatening or critical situations. Provide assistance first, then address concerns later.

Hands Off Gen. Mkhwanazi! A society that doesn’t protect whistleblowers is doomed to become a mafia state! They have already killed Babita. What do you think they will do to Mkhwanazi?
He must be shielded from all petty, egotistical, pompous & parasitic attacks!
All who try to reduce his mission to “personality fight ”, or even factions within the SAPS are all wrong. Journalists, politicians & many experts have been peddling of this line.
What this line seeks to do, is to neutralise the correct momentum against SAPS generals who have protected, advanced & benefitted from organised criminals with the endorsed of top politicians.
Mkhwanazi’s mission is simple: Organised criminals are embedded with top politicians & top generals, and they must all be exposed and meet the full might of the law!
Fact: All who oppose Gen. Mkhwanazi are not with the people! That is the bottom line!
If Mkhwanazi doesn’t win this battle, which is a peoples battle, then ours will become a banana republic, a mafia state ruled by men with guns!
Society must defend itself!
In the interest of protecting the integrity of the institution, while ensuring fairness to all parties, I have taken a decision to suspend MMC for Corporate and Shared Services, Cllr Kholofelo Morodi.
A preliminary investigation is underway into the matters raised before the Madlanga Commission to determine whether a prima facie case exists. @CityTshwane
Tonight, I worked to expose exactly who the BIG 5 cartel is.
I am not prepared to allow this committee to conclude its investigation without naming and confronting the thugs who are destroying our communities. South Africans deserve the full truth!
Thank you, Lt Gen Mkhwanazi!

There were 3 members of @SAPoliceService Cosmo City that came to terrorize me at my place of residence. Someone damaged my property, and when I kept their property, Police came here to forcefully take his property without a charge sheet or court order that allows them to.
Today, I attended the opening at Nasrec Expo Centre, where the Premier outlined Gauteng’s 13 key priorities. These include strengthening water infrastructure, creating sustainable jobs, and accelerating bulk infrastructure development.
I am encouraged to report that the containment of Foot and Mouth Disease is high on Gauteng’s agenda, with 286000 vaccines already administered and 70000 additional doses due to be rolled out this week.
