Nigel_Farage LBC if you think the UK lockdown is “hard”, have a look at what we have to deal with in South Africa

The ANC have learnt well from their pre-1994 mentors on how to circumvent the law for as long as possible; and manipulate funds in the shadow of this 'stricter intervention'. Ineptitude can easily be hidden under a blanket of emergency measures. Welcome back, the security state.

In the townships very little social distancing, hand sanitising, mask wearing is happening...where are the THOUSANDS of infected dead people, full hospitals, bodies lying all over the country.... All is see is mostly old folks severely affected....WUHAN virus is flu...the end!

So that's why? 👀 👀 Well done SA media & the Anc 👏👏👏👏

Tensions mount?, where

Murders down by 72% ...I say keep the country in lockdown!

Are not some soldiers getting a little carried away in different parts of Africa? Killing more then the Convi-19. Not South Africa

This is what happens when you imprison a population.

Whenever the army is deployed expect human rights abuses.That's a given!

China really just threw a grenade, and walked away.. This is about to get really wild, globally.

Hope they feed them same time
