“We want to celebrate fathers at the station and acknowledge that they do not just work but are family members.”

“Fathers are role models for their children and a support system for any wife, girlfriend, or sister. We must celebrate fathers, just to let them know they matter,” said Sibanyoni.

Social crime prevention co-ordinator Sergeant Mpho Sigida said the event brought men together to discuss and share their problems.
