[SAPS CONDEMNS OFFENSIVE TRIBALISTIC SLURS AGAINST KZN SPOKESMAN] The South African Police Service (SAPS) condemns in the strongest possible terms the discrimination and offensive remarks directed at one of its dedicated, hardworking, and highly qualified spokespersons, who executes his duties with diligence and professionalism. The SAPS has noted with concern the derogatory and tribalistic slurs captured in a recording outside a police station, in which a woman admonished a SAPS spokesperson for not communicating with her in isiZulu and referred to him as a “kwerekwere” which is a deeply offensive term used to label someone as a foreigner. Colonel Robert Netshiunda was born and raised in Limpopo, which is one of South Africa’s nine provinces. His home language is Tshivenda, one of the country’s twelve official languages. His presence in KwaZulu-Natal reflects the diversity and unity that define the SAPS. The SAPS takes this opportunity to remind communities that discrimination against any individual based on culture, language, or race is unacceptable and undermines the constitutional values upon which our democracy is founded. The province of KwaZulu-Natal is home not only to isiZulu-speaking communities but to people from diverse racial, cultural, and linguistic backgrounds. SAPS actively promotes integration, mutual respect, and inclusivity among all communities and within its own ranks. It is both unfair and disappointing for any member of the public to display such behaviour towards a police officer who is highly qualified and dedicated to serving and protecting all who live in this country. The SAPS calls for greater social cohesion among the communities we serve and urges the public to promote tolerance, respect, and understanding of different cultures and languages. Our police stations are staffed by members from a wide range of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, reflecting the rich diversity of South Africa. This diversity strengthens our ability to serve communities effectively. The SAPS once again congratulates Colonel Netshiunda for being recognized as Administration officer of the year at the recently held KZN Provincial Commissioners Excellence Awards. 📹: TikTok: @hrhprincesslondcarefound
