Cassper Nyovest behind EFF march to SAHPRA
In related news, Briefly News reported that South African rapper Cassper Nyovest has put his full weight behind the Economic Freedom Fighter's (EFF) plan to march to the offices of the South African Health Products Authority (SAHPRA) on Friday.
The EFF last week released a statement citing their plan to march to SAHPRA's offices on Friday, 25 June, in view of what they describe as the government's lacklustre management of the Covid-19 vaccine rollout programme.
The Doc Shebeleza hitmaker has nodded with approval in the direction of the party, signalling the importance for the South African population to get vaccinated.
Taking to Twitter, the record label boss substantiated his support for the march to move ahead, making sure to add that his support should not in any way be seen as political.
