NW residents are not safe in their homes while ANC spends billions to protect VIPs
11 September 2018
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in North West is not surprised by the latest crime statistics. The ANC has failed our communities on all levels - on service delivery and, even more so, on safety and security.
In North West, 49 more people were murdered than in the previous year, meaning that 950 people were murdered here from March 2017 to April 2018.
The rise in the number of stock theft and murders of farmers and farmworkers confirm the need to re-instate the special rural safety units. North West and Limpopo currently suffer the second most farm murders in the country.
The ANC has ignored the DA's pleas to bring back the units to protect our vulnerable rural communities.
