It was supported by several government departments and organisations, including Social Development, Education, Home Affairs, and the National Prosecuting Authority.
The programme included addresses from community leaders and stakeholders who stressed the importance of youth involvement in crime prevention. Netball and soccer matches formed part of the day’s activities, encouraging teamwork and positive community engagement.
District Commissioner Major General Nomana Mtukushe closed the event with a vote of thanks calling upon local communities to act against crime.
