@moses_nyagota commented:

"Why are lockdowns still a government measure when we have vaccines & treatments? Surely it’s for something else?"

@SNjotini said:

"And ever since lockdown kicked in, Government officials are on full salaries. Lifestyle intact. Heartbreaking."

Briefly News previously reported that Pearl Thusi was almost hounded by the social media mob for a recent post that was found to be distasteful.

In a misplaced effort to give hope to Mzansi, Pearl wished everyone a “happy lockdown” after the president announced the shift to alert Level 4. The now-deleted post read:

“Happy lockdown everyone ... I hope all those in need receive assistance, people find the silver lining in these tough times and God blesses you all abundantly.”

However, the post was not received well and many felt that she was making light of a bad situation. Thusi quickly deleted the tweet and when a fan asked why, she explained that she did not want to start drama.
