Masemola calls for unity amid SAPS leadership controversy

The National Police Commissioner, General Fannie Masemola, called for unity during his address on Thursday, 10 July.

He addressed Crime Intelligence senior management to introduce key acting appointments and reinforce a collective mission. During the meeting, Masemola emphasised the importance of refraining from smear campaigns or activities that damage the integrity and morale of the South African Police Service (SAPS).

The Crime Intelligence Division’s role was also reiterated at the meeting. The General said it is fundamental in identifying threats, disrupting criminal networks, and safeguarding the nation.

The National Commissioner said that only through a united effort and shared commitment to excellence can the police strengthen intelligence capabilities and improve the fight against crime.

“The stability within the Crime Intelligence environment is non-negotiable for maintaining broader national stability,” Masemola added.

The General also introduced the newly appointed Acting Divisional Commissioner, Major General Solomon Makgato and announced several other acting appointments to fill vacant senior management posts within the Crime Intelligence environment.

Masemola’s remarks come as South Africans eagerly await President Cyril Ramaphosa’s national address on KwaZulu-Natal Police Commissioner, Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi’s recent remarks. Mkhwanazi alleged that Police Minister Senzo Mchunu and other senior officials are involved in corrupt dealings.

Ramaphosa will deliver his address on Sunday, 13 July, when he returns from the BRICS Summit underway in Brazil.
