🚔Police Minister Bheki Cele and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola must be held accountable for Thabo Bester's embarrassing prison break. ThaboBester BhekiCele TheCitizenNews Catch up here⬇️

As the embarrassing Thabo Bester prison escape blunder continues to grip the country, civil society group Action Society has called for Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola and Police Minister Bheki Cele to be held accountable for the debacle.
