Ramaphosa Promises More Police For Delft To Tackle Gang Violence
President Cyril Ramaphosa has assured the residents of Delft in the Western Cape that more police will be deployed to the area to help curb gang violence.
Ramaphosa made this commitment during his visit to the area on Thursday where the African National Congress ANC held a candlelight ceremony highlighting the scourge of gender-based violence and femicide GBVF.
The Presidents visit to the area forms part of the events leading up to the ANCs birthday celebrations this Saturday.
He says Gangs and gang leaders are causing a lot of problems here. The police station commander tells me that they have declared war against gangs. They are arresting the gang leaders and I am happy to hear that.
Meanwhile, Ramaphosa says the ANC has seen more willingness among business people to fund it despite its electoral decline .
