Yesterday, the SABC reported that Western Cape Democratic Alliance Leader and MEC Transport “Bonginkosi Madikizela says it is time that people are allowed to go back to work without any further restrictions. He was reacting to a decision by taxi operators to load passengers to full capacity which is in breach of current lockdown regulations.”

I wonder if Madikizela wasn’t in the DA (the opposition to the ANC), wasn’t MEC Transport, and if he and his family travelled to work via taxi, would he take the same position? Why should we trust the motives of politicians, especially him, when they’ve lied to us so many times?
