Many citizens, especially from KZN and Gauteng, fear that their neighbourhoods will soon run out of food and other supplies as some transportation companies have decided to stop doing deliveries amid the unrest.
Somizi took to Instagram and shared a video he took inside a grocery store he went to in his neighbourhood. He hilariously shared that shoppers had bought all the meat and only left cakes. The media personality said in the clip:
"I understand what we're going through... This is exaggerating. They left the cakes only. Let's relax. Stop panicking like the other race. I understand that there won't be any deliveries but you can't take the entire meat."
In the clip shared by Somgaga, most of the store's shelves were empty following the panic buying sprees.Tweeps took to SomG's comment section to share their thoughts on his post. Check out some of their comments below:

"It’s the irony for me. When people fear hunger they panic, only difference is they can pay for it."

"What you get when you live in a neighborhood where everybody can afford food. First set to get there buys it all."

"Just saw it now, couldn’t believe it, even bread and eggs gone."
