Newly-appointed Johannesburg Mayor Dada Morero has sparked controversy with a proposal to recruit documented foreign nationals into the city's metropolitan police department, JMPD. Speaking at the ANC's regional Lekgotla, Mayor Morero proposed employing foreign nationals who speak various languages to help combat crime in the city. His comments have been met with backlash, with many questioning the plan's feasibility and potential impact on local employment.
