Restaurant and nightclub KONKA seems to be forgetting that the world is still under the grips of the Covid-19 pandemic. A video shared to Twitter by popular user @kulanicool shows a bunch of people partying their lives away at the Soweto-based club.
With no masks or social distancing visible, the club has raised some concerns for many social media users. Peeps commented on the Ace of Spades drink and also made mention of an incoming fourth wave of Covid-19 infections.
The original video shared by Linda Moekestsi stated that someone at the nightclub purchased 20 bottles of Ace of Spades. A quick search online shows that just one bottle of the champagne sells for around R5 500.

"Not reality": Saffas have strong opinions about KONKA, say the lavish Soweto nightclub hides the real township
Previously, Briefly News reported that we have kept a close eye on the KONKA nightclub in Soweto after noticing its widespread popularity among the rich and famous. It has transformed the image of the township from a place of poverty to one where the elite goes to let their hair down.
However, in our latest Facebook post about KONKA, we've realised that many people across Mzansi don't believe the hype and many feel it is reserved for a select group of people who don't live in the township, therefore, it is not a correct representation of Soweto, or any other township, for that matter. We captioned the post:
"KONKA is a nightclub situated deep in the heart of Soweto, it's a millionaire's playground. Townships are no longer the symbol of poverty."
