EMPD superintendents have completed their first month in their position after being taken through intensive and rigorous training.

This is according to the EMPD spokesperson, Chief Supt Wilfred Kgasago, who added that the officers are in a crucial position as this post is at junior management level and gives assistance to precinct commanders in the Operations Division in order to ensure effective management and good service delivery.

“Eight will be assisting chief superintendents at precincts, one at Land Invasion and the rest are within specialised services which include OR Tambo International, First Responder Unit, Public Order Policing(POPS) and K9 Units.”
