Gayton gets slapped over diversity of Saps’ new recruits
McKenzie argued that South Africa should include young people from all racial groups in its public institutions.
The Justice, Crime Prevention and Security cluster has defended the composition of the latest cohort of South African Police Service (Saps) recruits against allegations that they are exclusively black. The cluster clarified that the diversity of the recruits reflects the demographics of the applicant pool and the recruitment process.
In response to Patriotic Alliance leader Gayton McKenzie's concerns, the cluster maintained that the process is fair, transparent, and inclusive, aiming to attract suitable and diverse candidates to serve the nation.
