Five people arrested in Gauteng for impersonations

Five people arrested in Gauteng for impersonations

Gauteng police have arrested five people in the past few days for impersonating a police officer, soldier and emergency service employee.
A 25-year-old man with dreadlocks was arrested in Heidelberg for impersonating a member of SANDF and possession of stolen property after he was found walking in the CBD wearing full SANDF uniform on Sunday, 26 April 2020. Members of the community found it unusual when they saw the man with dreadlocks in full army uniform walking along Voortrekker Street and they alerted the police. Upon interviewing the man, police established that he is not a member of SANDF. He was arrested and charged with impersonating a member of SANDF and possession of suspected stolen property.
In Johannesburg, again on Sunday, a 40-year-old man was arrested after he was found driving a vehicle fitted with red lights and siren. When stopped, the suspect could not produce proof that he is an emergency service employee. As police were searching the car, they found an unlicensed firearm with ammunition as well as traffic cones belonging to South African Police Service. He was arrested for impersonating an emergency service employee, possession of unlicensed firearm and ammunition and possession of suspected stolen property.
In Tshwane, on Wednesday, 22 April 2020 a former reservist and two of her accomplices were arrested for impersonating police officers and common robbery. Police received information about two women who are wearing police uniform and a man who had just committed a common robbery. A lookout for the suspects was conducted. A vehicle matching the description given was spotted and stopped in Soshanguve. Upon questioning the occupants, it was established that one female is a former police reservist while the other female and male were just members of the community. Inside the vehicle there were police uniforms, unwritten police docket, trays of eggs and chickens. The suspects were charged with impersonating police officers, possession of suspected stolen property and common robbery.
Investigation is underway to establish how the suspects acquired uniforms and property that belongs to the police and the army. Further charges may be added to all the suspects, pending the investigation.
The Gauteng Provincial Commissioner Lieutenant General Elias Mawela applauded the police and community who acted with diligence to intercept the suspects. "It is a very serious offence to impersonate a law enforcement officer. These suspects deserve a hefty sentence that will send a strong message to other criminals who tarnish the names of the hard working law enforcers and emergency service employees" said the Provincial Commissioner.
The suspects will appear in magistrates’ courts in due course.

Singer and Actress diva Evelyne Lagu says she will support President Museveni forever

Singer and Actress diva Evelyne Lagu says she will support President Museveni forever 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Evelyne Lagu: My name is Nakabira Evelyn also know as Evelyn Lagu (stage name). With a very sober mind I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to His Excellence Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, the president of the Republic of Uganda for the altruistic heart.

You all know the situation I was going through before His Excellence ordered for my transfer to Nakasero Hospital where I got a new life.
For the starters, I had spent close to 7months bedridden with heart, kidney and lung complications. My pockets had gone completely dry due to the costly medication and upkeep. My friends, family I tried what they could (I appreciate them too) but stills the bills could not be met. For sure I had completely lost hopes of survival and left everything to God.

When I received a call telling me that president Museveni had ordered for my transfer to Nakasero Hospital moreover he was going to pay the bills, I thought I was dreaming or else it was a mental problem. For certain, I couldn't believe the sudden change of fortune. It was real.

For the days I spent at Nakasero Hospital, I was treated like a VIP. I received whatever I wanted whenever I wanted it and still receiving. My bill totalling close to UGX50,000,000 was paid by president Museveni and he's still paying more because I have not stopped visiting the hospital. He also promised that Nakasero hospital will be my Hospital in case of any illness.

There's a verse in the Bible, (Revelation 18:6), it says "Pay her back even as she has paid, and give back to her double according to her deeds; in the cup which she has mixed, mix twice as much for her."
As a believer I will be hypocritical if don't pay back to the person who gave me another life. I might not be able to payback Mzee Museveni in double but let me give him the little I have. From today I will stand by him and support his government.

The bible again says (Proverbs 19:17), "One who is gracious to a poor man lends to the LORD, And He will repay him for his good deed."

For my brothers and sisters in the opposition, I love you so much. Don't judge me please!

For God and My Country.
