The move by Duarte comes amid reports that Dlamini-Zuma was mobilising her Covid-19 national command council colleagues to throw their weight behind a continued ban on the sale of cigarettes and alcohol until level one of the lockdown.

Dlamini-Zuma was also suspected to have been behind the government U-turn on the sale of tobacco products when the country moved to level four, after President Cyril Ramaphosa had initially announced that cigarettes would be sold.

As the minister of Cogta, Dlamini-Zuma is constitutionally empowered under the Disaster Management Act to sign off on the lockdown regulations.“I wish to protest against the attack on minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma by what is clearly a well orchestrated tobacco industry trying to make sure we are driven into a deeper crisis during a period when we are facing a health crisis that attacks people's respiratory organs,” said Duarte.

“Here is an industry who over years have exploited the health of many people across the world. And today they find it easy to chain up petitions and ask people to sign and believe that is how one removes a minister of state.”

Zuma family corruption has destroyed SA & Ms Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma enforces the world's most stringent Covid lockdown tobacco prohibitions, while her son, Edward, is a director of Amalgamated Tobacco Manufacturing - who's illicit cigarettes are freely available in Lockdown 😡😡

Please give this women something else to worry about instead of cigarettes. We are adults, that can make their own choices. If you want to treat us like naughty children, we will rebel!

🖕🏼

Oh.... Jessie Duarte you must say that also when Chinese brand is on shelves REPLACING British American Tobacco BRAND... AND THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH AFRICA MUST SAY BYE BYE TO PETER STUYVESANT...

Here we go again!

Otla bona mahwafi a noga this time around

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

It seems to me that we have a mentality shortage in parliament and the the two musketeers are becoming three now to their way of dictatorship as we humans do not have the right to think for our selves. What a circus these idiots are🤬🤬🤬🤬

The ban makes people starve.

Not that I hate cigarettes and alcohol, but Dlamini-Zuma was on point here and your support to her is perfectly appropriate. I am joining you on this one. We can live without cigarettes and alcohol, but access to healthcare is a crucial constitutional right.

... maaaaaaarrr mmmmy FOK! 😡

Another member of the Ali Baba team

Just close this useless paper

And the some elicit smuggles and politicians rich.

The Lies,Greed nd Manipulation by this People in the name of Covid19 shows how far they can go to deceive People for the benefit of their God knows who

Emphasis on weight, Covid is coming for the fat politicians

Jessie is part of the Ndz cabal she hopes Nkosazana becomes the President than she will be deputy president u must remember she and Ace vrede dairy Magashule are Nkosazana stooges so she must protect I think Jessie's son or son in law was implicated in some dodgy deal so 1+1=2

Give us your source please. We can't afford to hate our Minister based on rumors and hate DlaminiZuma

YOU make me sick. Why the sudden venom, Jessie? Did Kopdoek finally decide to give you a cut of the illicit cigarette sales?

That is good news

I would prefer they exchange NDZ with Mam’Bathabile

Jesse your continuous support of dodgy Zumas make us all sick.

NDZ must take a chill... she must stop using this pandemic to pretend that she is this powerful woman in the ANC. She is not the president and the sooner she gets that into her old skull the better.
