The Revenant

Aid the silent killer of African growth.

[MEET A YOUNG ACADEMIC POLICE OFFICER] Hailing from Nkandla, KwaZulu-Natal, the 30-year-old Constable (Dr) Lindokuhle Ngcobo is stationed at SAPS Hillbrow and serves in the Crime Prevention Unit, where his responsibilities include monitoring and stabilising crime hotspots, responding to robbery complaints, tracking and apprehending suspects, and participating in intelligence-driven operations. Constable (Dr) Ngcobo is highly accomplished academically as he holds a PhD in Policy and Development Studies, a Master of Social Science in Public Policy, a Bachelor of Social Science Honours in Public Policy, and a Bachelor of Social Science degree from University of KwaZulu-Natal. He represents the power of education, hard work, and dedication to community development. He acquired his PhD in 2025 with thesis topic: “Exploring the lived experiences of women with disabilities and policy response towards mitigating challenges faced during the corona virus pandemic alert levels 5-3: A case study of the City of Johannesburg. Before joining the Family in Blue, Constable (Dr) Ngcobo worked as a Policy Researcher at the Department of Community Safety, demonstrating his long-standing passion for research and policy development. Seeking a greater challenge and a more direct impact on society, he enrolled in the Basic Policing Development Learning Programme (BPDLP) at the 3 SAI Kimberley Academy, where he was fortunate to be part of Project 10 000’s 2022 intake. His passion for serving communities and contributing towards a safer South Africa inspired him to join the South African Police Service. Furthermore, Ngcobo’s research interests align closely with the SAPS mandate, as both are grounded in social justice, human rights, community development, and policy transformation. Reflecting on his decision to join SAPS, Dr Ngcobo explained: “I believed that working within SAPS would expose me to the real-life social challenges faced by vulnerable communities, including inequality, gender-based violence, disability exclusion, youth crime, and barriers to access to justice.” Recognising a gap in the integration of technology, research, and innovative community engagement strategies within policing, Constable (Dr) Ngcobo believes that young people can make a significant contribution by introducing digital solutions, research-based interventions, and modern communication approaches that enhance service delivery while strengthening relationships between SAPS and the communities. This youth month, he encourages young people to consider SAPS as an employer of choice because he believes the organisation offers an opportunity to serve the nation with pride, discipline, and integrity while providing career growth, skills development, leadership opportunities, and a platform to make a meaningful difference in society. It is never too late to achieve goals. Constable (Dr) Ngcobo set himself the challenge of obtaining a doctorate before the age of 30, and through dedication, he achieved it.

@MaoengKekeletso They hate everyone.

Women hate each other

@PhutiSemenya14 Have we ever had a generation of men like this? Gossip mongers who are not even afraid to show it on public platforms. Competing with women on everything now.

Ke yena? Or kea mo swantša 🤔

@Boanerge_ @AkanimiltonM Life is made up of moments.

@koketsomashilee You speak with such authority...one would think you were there and understand every detail.

The polygamist . Enhle my dear, after watching the polygamist, we totally get it. Imagine your husband having two kids on you, from different women for that matter. In Enhle’s case it was not a Netflix series, but reality . You can easily get infected with STI 😭 If you are angry at Jonasi , and it’s not even real, now imagine what this woman and others went through in real life. #ThePolygamist #Netflix

#WorldCup2026 This Germany game makes me mad at Hugo Broos.

@ThatgirlLee__ Ppl love attention 🙄

Black Coffee 😭😭. I kept thinking of him as I was watching this

@Stella_grooves Women are perpetual victims. Every single one is innocent, and every ex is Jonas. 😅

You know what the painful part is? I actually know a real life Jonasi on whom I suspect this story was written for. Narcissist, sleeps with everything that moves, has zero regard for family, has embarrassed his wife repeatedly, has children spread across Zimbabwe, get every single maid who has worked for them pregnant, got two of his friends wives pregnant. Hot his friends wife’s sister pregnant. When his daughter died, he was living with another women and only got to know she died abatwa mawoko in the supermarket. Then when his sins caught up with him and he got ill, returned home so that the loyal wife could nurse him. When he died, the was bankrupt and left them with nothing. @SueNyathi This one cut too close to the bone. That woman went through the most. This series had so many highs and lows and highs and low, the ending though, the ending 💔 @NetflixSA #ThePolygamist

Bad mouthing us won’t get you legal papers!

@robertmarawa 6 Defenders and still concede two goals is criminal. Sithole is a defender.

🔴 Mexico 2-0 South Africa FT 🔴 A downpour at the Stadium and #Sudáfrica down to 9 men, not the start to the World Cup SA wished for.....But it's NOT the end of the road. "Thoughts please....!!"~P.M.

@Sir_2_U @kwazi08 @robertmarawa What does Foster give us?

@kwazi08 @robertmarawa Agreed except for your point 3.

@VehicleTracker8 The video should start at 1:26, honestly.

Church robbery

@kofoworola__a You are single, and you support Chelsea 🤣 can life get any worse. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

I think Senegal is the only African team other Africans will 100% support in the World Cup. They are a very lovable nation unlike Morocco and Xenophobia fc

@WorldCup2026WC You see what AI has done to the world.

South Africa 🇿🇦 or Mexico 🇲🇽 — Who will win Game 1? #FIFAWorldCup

Dear @CartrackZA, As a customer of your services, I will be cancelling my subscription tomorrow morning due to the ongoing poor labour conditions of your employees. I cannot, in good conscience, continue as a customer of a service built on the backs of abused workers. Kind regards A Disappointed Customer

@AyandaYandiey @Ningizimu Do ppl know how much money is in recycling?

His story is sad. He had 120 employees. I wish he could rise again.

@Arsenal Saka is a patient today. GET HIM OUT
