The AfriForum neighbourhood watches in Stellaland, namely Bloemhof, Delareyville, Sannieshof and Vryburg, participated in the civil rights organisation’s national mass patrol on Friday, 20 July 2018.
The patrol comprised 60 patrollers from four AfriForum neighbourhood watches, who travelled in 30 vehicles over more than 375 km. No incidents were reported. Security firms and the SAPS also participated in the patrol.
“AfriForum holds national patrols to improve visibility and cooperation, and ensure the safety of our communities,” says Alta Pretorius, AfriForum’s Regional Coordinator for Stellaland.
“AfriForum appeals to communities to become involved and prioritise their safety themselves. We cannot rely on government alone to see to our safety. Join any local safety institution of join AfriForum today and become part of the solution,” Pretorius concludes.
