VUWANI – The South African Police Service in Vuwani, held a farewell celebration of the retiring Detective Warrant Officer Ntsemeni Donald Mamphiswana who served the service for 33 years at Levubu Lodge, on Friday 18 February 2022.

In his response, Warrant Officer Mamphiswana who applied his skills at various investigating teams within the SAPS, advised young police officials to understand their responsibilities and never compromise their jobs for anything. He also said “discipline is highly practiced in the service and that’s one of the tools that kept him thus far. He further highlighted the issue of corruption that most cops had experienced, which he said Police officials should avoid it because you will get arrested, lose your job and your values within the community. He also thanked everyone present and his family for supporting him all the years until to date.”

He concluded by saying, “God is the only way to keep us safe, all the times and I believe he is the main reason I’m still standing alive and healthy at 60 years old.”
