The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) has dismissed reports claiming it has been disbanded, saying it remains fully operational and continues to execute its legal mandate.

In a statement on Thursday, the Commission clarified that its existence is anchored in the National Cohesion and Integration Act No. 12 of 2008, which provides for a single, non-renewable six-year term for the chairperson and seven commissioners.
