Gauteng community safety MEC Faith Mazibuko is worried Covid-19 infections might increase as people ignore regulations in Sowro on Saturday.Gauteng community safety MEC Faith Mazibuko on Saturday warned that more Covid-19 infections could be expected as hundreds of people partied the night away in Soweto and broke lockdown regulations.

Mazibuko was at a police operation in Diepkloof, Soweto, on Saturday evening to enforce adjusted level 1 lockdown regulations. Police dispersed a number of gatherings where people did not observe social distancing and where few masks could be seen at packed venues that spilt over into the streets.“What you see there is a Titanic coming. More and more infections coming. More and more people sharing hookah pipes,” Mazibuko told eNCA.

“Others are walking without masks, lots and lots of gatherings, street bashes. People are carrying cooler boxes, sitting on the pavements, cars blocking the road,” Mazibuko said. Acting provincial commissioner of police in Gauteng, Maj-Gen Tommy Mthombeni was also at the police operation, and said police had arrested not less than seven people for driving under the influence of liquor on Saturday.

Yeah. She is all for community safety but does not cover her nose Yuck

We obviously expect such from them.They obviously have to create stories to support their 3rd wave theories. Now we wait for one of them to Officially announce de 3rd wave dat it's here.We are ready for that revelation nd den we'll wait for the 4th wave as well to be prophecized

The way clueless but forward this granny who does no wanna acknowledge her age is, she really doesn't befit an MEC: her tongue is so uncircumcised; speaks to all anyhow and have a stinking attitude towards Coloured people: prove me wrong and have Twitter blocking my account!!!

Wonder what Bheki will say after he and his police could not enforce the law....big talker no action..GovernmentZA CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA

If the SANBS reports a 60% already-infected rate , then I doubt much will come of this. We're close to herd immunity through natural means. If anything, these parties are doing us a favour. I don't see any Titanic coming. Maybe just a tug boat
