​Sharon Jephta was a lieutenant general in the South African Police Service. She started in 1981 in the SA Police Force. It was not an easy journey having to overcome many obstacles in what was a “man’s world.” Sharon joined up to assist her community and to stop the abuse she was seeing around her. A fascinating story, the first of many episodes, she takes us through joining up and basic training at Bishop Lavis. She then speaks of integrity as part of a police officer’s makeup.
