Crime in South Africa being out of control and the SAPS failing miserably to combat it is no longer news. The cause of this is also no secret. The only matter of importance is how long South Africans will allow it to continue.<\/p>\n
The latest quarter (April to June 2023) crime statistics were announced today by the Minister of Police, Bheki Cele. According to the statistics, three people are still being murdered per hour, four are raped, and sixteen are seriously assaulted. There are 409 home burglaries taking place daily. According to the SAPS, 14 farm murders have occurred, and 6 281 pieces of livestock have been stolen in the past three months. TLU SA’s statistics differ from this.<\/p>\n
“The crime statistics, however inaccurate they may be, are unacceptable. We will certainly not welcome a slight decrease in some offences because every single crime is one too many,” says Bennie van Zyl, general manager of TLU SA. “South Africans must start using the available solutions to free the country from the government’s poor governance, such as making well-considered decisions at the ballot box, opposing legislation where necessary, and not resorting to a head-in-the-ground reaction regarding the government’s policy direction. Nothing will change or improve as long as the ANC is in charge.”<\/p>\n
TLU SA is constantly advising people on how to function independently of the state and taking action to oppose or change legislation while challenging the government on everything that harms the economy. TLU SA will not give up the fight for a sustainable economy and a progressive country.<\/p>\n
Feel free to join as a supporter to empower TLU SA to continue\u00a0with\u00a0this.<\/p>\n
