The EFF criticized the federal government for opening colleges but you don’t have any masks , no social distancing and so forth. The one factor the EFF is nice at is blowing smoke .

This can be very irresponsible for leaders with respectable following to defiantly mission such reprehensible behaviour. Im deeply saddened. Covid-19 is spreading at an awesome velocity. We’d like nationwide co-operation to defeat it.

That is disappointing no masks 😷 no social distancing but you’ll go on public platforms to induce South Africans to put on masks and observe social distancing
