National Police Commissioner Bheki Cele told thousands of policemen who gathered in Bloemfontein yesterday that it was their day and that they should eat, dance and walk together.

The members of the force gathered for a police day of celebration.

Cele was loudly cheered when he addressed the crowd at Vodacom Park.

Cele said South Africans slept peacefully in their homes because of the police and he cannot understand why he cannot say thank you to them.

Opposition parties have slammed the expense involved in the celebration and also the fact that some 50-thousand policemen have been taken off the streets.
