Ramaphosa addressed a few of the controversial decisions made by the government during lockdown, confirming that exercise would no longer have a curfew, the sale of alcohol under strict consumption would be allowed and the sale of tobacco products would be banned under level 3 because of “health reasons.”
The details of the regulations still need to be provided, but thousands took to Twitter to express their views. And, of course, Ramaphosa's “fellow South Africans” made the top trends list.
