This is one of the looming changes announced by President Cyril Ramaphosa when he addressed the nation on Thursday night about government's plan to impose various levels of lockdown to tackle the coronavirus pandemic and restart the economy.The liquor and cigarette industries had threatened legal challenges to overturn the prohibitions, implemented at the start of the lockdown on April 27, citing the loss of its customers to illegal traders and the large loss of taxes to the government.
Public transport will operate with a limited number of passengers but they will all have to wear face masks, said Ramaphosa. While the sale of cigarettes will be permitted, so will outdoor exercise under strict conditions. These are yet to be revealed. Mass gatherings at places such as bars, shebeens, concert venues, cinemas, sporting events and religious gatherings will remain prohibited.
But he didn't pronounce on booze sale or his silence is ban shall continue?
