Cape Town - South Africans who were live-tweeting during President Cyril Ramaphosa's address felt like he was reprimanding many for not following the lockdown rules and doing their part to curb the spread of Covid-19.
President Ramaphosa addressed the nation on Sunday night and announced that Cabinet had decided to ban the sale of alcohol with immediate effect. He also announced that a curfew will also be introduced between 9 pm and 4 am. Only those who would be working during that time will be allowed to be out of their homes.
