Covid-19 lockdown: President Cyril Ramaphosa has called on the SA National Defence Force to “be a force of kindness and not of might” by JKwritingz
Placing the country on a 21-day lockdown was a very difficult decision to come to but it was one that had to be made to save lives.
“As we start these 21 days, many of our people are fearful, doubtful, concerned about loneliness, boredom. Our people will be looking to you not for might but assurance that things will be fine,” said Ramaphosa. Ramaphosa acknowledged that “of course they will be some in the general public that will want to test the might of the SA army but nudge them in the right direction and remind them why you are doing your duty”.
