Jacob Zuma has been criticised for appointing a new woman police commissioner Mangwashi Phiyega due to her lack of police experience. It is felt the criteria should be the ability to fight crime rather than their allegiance to the party. While bragging that he would clamp down on crime, the previous Police Commissioner Bheki Cele also had no experience. His predecesor, Jackie Selebi was also a political appointment. Mangwashi Phiyega will take charge of one of the toughest assignments in South Africa. She is a former social worker with a corporate background and diploma from the University of Wales. It is believed that she is also the saviour of the nation's corruption-riddled, scandal-plagued police service. Phiyega's appointment has been considered as a breakthrough and praised by the women's wing of the governing African National Congress.

Zapiro's cartoon is based on the Insights of Albert Einstein's, less well known theory - THE THEORY OF INSANITY. - The endless repetition of the same experiments, in the hope of obtaining a different result.
