Kgotso a ebe le lena.
Distinguished guests, members of the SayPro Royal Board, our esteemed stakeholders, partners, colleagues, and members of the broader community – I welcome you with honour and humility on this historic day.
Today marks a defining moment in the life of SayPro. With pride, vision, and responsibility, we officially launch SayProRoyal-4 – the SayPro Royal Board Ethics and Compliance Committee.
This is not merely a new committee. It is a bold declaration that SayPro stands for transparency, accountability, good governance, and integrity in everything we do – from empowering youth and communities, to building sustainable systems across Africa and beyond.
In a world increasingly shaken by ethical dilemmas, compliance breaches, and a general erosion of trust in institutions, we at SayPro have chosen a different path. A path of honour. A path of courage. A path of ethical leadership.
SayProRoyal-4 is our promise that we will hold ourselves to the highest moral and legal standards. This Committee will:
- Set the tone for ethical leadership within SayPro and its affiliates.
- Monitor compliance with laws, policies, and internal codes of conduct.
- Ensure that integrity is not an option – but the standard.
- Investigate fairly, act decisively, and protect those who speak out.
- Guide SayPro’s royal governance with a compass rooted in values, fairness, and truth.
To the leaders entrusted with SayProRoyal-4 – your responsibility is not light. You are the guardians of our principles. You are the moral compass in our boardrooms. Your role is to lead with wisdom, act with courage, and ensure that SayPro never loses sight of the “why” behind our work – the people we serve.
Let us remember: Ethics is not a checkbox. Compliance is not a formality.
They are the foundation of sustainable impact, dignity, and trust.
As we step into this new chapter, I call on every SayPro team member, partner, and supporter to walk this journey with us. Let ethics be our shield. Let compliance be our light. Let us model what is possible when values lead the way.
Together, with Kgotso – peace, dignity, and vision – we rise.
Let SayProRoyal-4 begin its journey with courage, with clarity, and with the commitment to build a better tomorrow.
Thank you. Kea leboha. Siyabonga. Dankie.
