The need to clean up and bolster crime intelligence - which has been 'eroded and hollowed out' over the years - has never been more important and more urgent, police minister Bheki Cele said.

Police minister Bheki Cele says there is a commitment to ensure management of information within the police is strengthened.The need to clean up and bolster crime intelligence — which has been “eroded and hollowed out” over the years — has never been more important and more urgent, police minister Bheki Cele said.

Addressing the plenary, Cele said there was a commitment from the government to ensure the management of information within the police was strengthened. “Over the next three years, SAPS in conjunction with municipalities will invest even more on digital policing methods. The use of technology to fight crime will be intensified through further operationalisation of safer districts, which will see the establishment of operational command centres and implementation of drone policing at district level. Smarter policing must and will be the new normal.

Cele said the actual human resource capability of POPs is 5,892 and ideally for the 2021/2022 financial year should be more than 12,000.Deputy minister of state security Zizi Kodwa said the July incidents had given the SSA an opportunity to open a conversation about the limitations brought about by its mandate in dealing with future threats.

Zambia new president sworn in on pledge to repair economy, rightsZambia's newly elected president Hakainde Hichilema also vowed to restore respect for human rights and liberties eroded under his predecessor. African leaders are not to be appreciated for one reason, he is sworn in but come end of the term, he might want to take another one, another one, another one and another one until he is 95 year old then kicked out just like Mugabe, their power mongering behavior controls them There is no need for masks in Zambia and I've never heard them forcing the public to vaccinate or even fascinating about vaccinating... They all come in with the best intentions. A year or so later.... Dololo.
