President Cyril Ramaphosa and Acting Minister of Police Firoz Cachalia are set to brief the media at 16:00 today, as pressure mounts over the future of National Police Commissioner Fannie Masemola.
Mounting Questions Over Masemola
The briefing comes amid growing public and political scrutiny following corruption-related charges linked to the R360 million SAPS tender.
Calls have intensified for Masemola to be suspended or placed on special leave while investigations and court proceedings continue.
What to Expect
While it remains unclear whether any immediate action will be announced, the briefing is expected to:
- Address the ongoing controversy
- Clarify government’s position
- Possibly outline next steps regarding leadership within SAPS
All eyes will be on whether Ramaphosa takes decisive action or opts to await the outcome of legal processes.
