Hy het as instrukteur by Maleoskop gedien en was later by Lichtenburg SAPD bevelvoerder van die Bestuursinligtingsentrum. Daar het hy verkiesingsbeplanning met die OVK geko\u00f6rdineer en SAPD-lede vir verkiesings opgelei. N\u00e1 sy aftrede in Maart 2026 werk hy by Outdoor Guns, NWK, Lichtenburg. Barend is goed bekend onder inwoners en boere, het as skakelbeampte met die landbougemeenskap saamgewerk en was by verskeie opbou- en skoonmaakprojekte betrokke in Ditsobotla.<\/p>","testimonial_quote":"<p>Veertig jaar in die polisiediens het my geleer dat veiligheid op betroubare inligting, goeie ko\u00f6rdinering en wedersydse vertroue rus. Ditsobotla moet SAPD, GPF-strukture, boereverenigings, buurtwagte en munisipale tegniese spanne rondom \u2019n gemeenskaplike operasionele plan verenig. Kabeldiefstal, vandalisme, onwettige verbindings en skade aan water- en padinfrastruktuur moet vinnig aangemeld, ondersoek en opgevolg word. Landelike inwoners en boere benodig ook veilige, begaanbare roetes en tydige waarskuwings. Ek wil my ervaring in opleiding, verkiesingsbeplanning en gemeenskapskakeling gebruik om duidelike kommunikasie, verantwoordelike optrede en meetbare veiligheidsresultate regoor Lichtenburg en omliggende gebiede te help vestig.<\/p>","ward":"4, 8, 12, 15, 20","ward_information":"","municipality":"Ditsobotla","province":"North
