The Minister of Police also allegedly lied about the principal agreeing to have his DNA sampled, which caused an uproar among South African citizens. It has been almost a month since the nation learned about the case, but the handling of it made many people too emotional and exhausted.

The country has given traditional healers the go-ahead for them to deal with the perpetrator spiritually. One lady, Qawekazi, rooted for witchcraft to take over:

“I have never supported witchcraft like I do now. For once, let’s do it for a good cause.”
