In the comments section, social media users highlighted that Alostro was right all along, but no one took him seriously. Others applauded Mkhwanazi for exposing the drug syndicate and rot in the country.

Here are some of the comments:

@IamEriOluwa said:

“The police are aware of all these things. And they can fix it. But sadly, many of them are also compromised. Like Malema said years ago. South Africans must protect the General by all means. Only incorruptible officers like him can fix the drug issue in South Africa. Others can only pretend they are doing it. But it's just for the camera.”
