NotInMyName called on embattled Minister Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams to resign from Cabinet for breaching lockdown rules aimed at curbing the spread of the virus in South Africa.

“South Africans have witnessed the repercussions and the vicissitudes suffered by ordinary citizens, at the hands of SA National Defence Force and the South African Police Service, who did not abide by the regulations,” secretary general Themba Masango said in a statement.

I hope the president and South Africans will find it in their hearts to forgive me,” said Ndabeni-Abrahams in a video clip.

Ramaphosa on Wednesday placed Ndabeni-Abrahams on special leave for two months, one of which will be unpaid, after a photo circulated on social media showing her having lunch with friends despite the national lockdown.
