The minister's woes are far from over if the law takes its course over her lockdown-lunch violation

President Cyril Ramaphosa has put communications minister Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams on leave and docked her pay.Communications minister Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams may be liable for a fine up to R5,000 if police pursue her for violating lockdown regulations.

In an apology video on Wednesday, the minister admitted that she violated lockdown regulations: “I would convey an apology to President Cyril Ramaphosa, the national command centre, the South African society at large for breeching lockdown rules put in place to curb the spread of Covid-19.” “We call on the minister of police and SAPS to take the same action they have done with ordinary citizens who violated the regulations,” the EFF said. “The two-month censure imposed on the minister for breaching the lockdown is nonsensical, and suggests that ministers and members of the executive must be treated as if they are above the law.”

“I regret the incident and I am deeply sorry for my actions. I hope the president and South Africans will find it in their hearts to forgive me,” she said. “Should President Ramaphosa not lay the criminal complaint, he should at the very least address the nation together with the minister of police and the national police commissioner to assure the nation that SAPS will indeed act against Ndabeni-Abrahams,” she said.

Might? The double standards in SA are well known. Cupcake Stella won't live it down. One of President's favourites, why? She is so obvious and she knows how to play the game. I really thought CR has more brains.

She’s careless, basking in fame of being a celebrity instead of doing her work.

They must arrest her

I’m with the EFF on this one, Stella should be removed from guavament without an option to take up any future guavament position or tender in perpetuity. Sorry doesn’t fix broken eggs. “Less-equal” citizens are being arrested, beaten and some even killed by SANDF over less

Was the other guy a willing participant in the alleged crime?

But pictures don't have time stamps.

Might? Will the 'General' GenBheki_Cele go after Stellarated , after all she is one of CyrilRamaphosa's famous ladies?

No, they must go and arrest her as they do with us. What is 'might'? So the law 'might' work for politicians but it always works when it comes to arresting us?

This is absolutely NONSENSE, JAMNADAS was not disciplined.

Cops must do their job

They won't
