I am are not sure what we want. We called on the government to lift restrictions. We said they are treating us like kids as if we could not look after ourselves. They said fine, it is in your hands: sanitize, observe physical distance, wear masks and avoid large gatherings
Truth is all we wanted was to be allowed to live “our normal life” as if there was no Covid-19. We now calling on the government to do something. What do we want them to do exactly? Send police and army to police our behaviour? Restrict inter-provincial travels?
Why is it that it is the other that is the problem and not us? We are the ones who are out partying. It is our kids that went to the Rage parties with our permission. We are the ones planning to go on holiday: to let our hair down after this terrible year. Hi lava yini?
The problem is with the restaurants and shebeens who allow many people and without masks, right? It is not with us who go there without masks, who insist on a table even if it is full, who do not keep physical distance. Is it the government that gathered outside courts or us?
Sure they should be out there testing people, closing facilities that do not observe regulations. But what are we who said we do not want to be policed like we are kids doing?
How many of you here have posted screengrabs of parties you are going to? I get it by the way imigidi are not parties. Swigubu and xiseveseve are not parties. Traditional leaders who can’t prevent the death of our kids at initiation schools are trusted to follow COVID rules!
