ANC deputy secretary-general Jessie Duarte has launched a scathing attack on the tobacco industry.

This while defending minister of co-operative governance and traditional affairs Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma.

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.

And she can f**** off too

Jessie Duarte does more than smoke horse shit

Gogo Duarte is trying to be recognised for defending the indefensible.

So how much do they scooped into her coloured ass for singing there corrupt tune? Money talks and bullshitt walks....

You make ppl sick and use sigerettes and alcohol as an excuse!

Jessie guess you also on the payroll now?

So does booze, dagga, food etc. Give the people, not 'our 'people', the choice.

These stupid things are starting to work on my nerves , since when do they care, corrupt bunch of dumb people .

Covid-19 – Smokers seem less likely than non-smokers to fall ill with covid-19

It's very easy for this lot to forfeit their rights and civil liberties after they allegedly 'struggled' and 'fought' so hard for freedom.

Question: is this scathing attack also directed at the illegal tobacco industry.

Is this fossil still alive jessieduarte

The END OF THE ANC IS IN SIGHT and opposition need not lift a finger. Famine will be their downfall and their own voters will destroy them. There will be no escaping street JUSTICE as they will break the spirit of a hungry citizen.

How convenient for them to want to change policies during lockdown. We are being led by lunatics

Drop this in your next headline

The next one who will join the choir is Bathabile Dlamini

That one own decision. Corruption allows people to die of hunger, thurst, wars ... but that is your decision. How do you have the last say. SA should wake up, stop complaining as you allow thus term after term.

So does the illegal tobacco industry only the country gets no taxes from illegal cigarettes and there are zero transparency or health controls in the manufacture of them. More people will have lung cancer after lockdown than before. Wake up! OS I’m not a smoker!

I think Duarte must sit and think for a minute. She might be the dick one...

SouthAfricansP1 So she has that finger in the pie, too?

Creep back into your Gupta sponsored box please. Where are ur ministers getting smokes n whisky?

The Zumas all the same. Birds of the same feather fluck together. Goes for whole of Anc. Cyril, Cele makes Zuma think who is next she dominates them

How come everytime I want to go to bed I see yet another haunting face? Has the same effect on me as NDZ😱 Smoking has ALWAYS been dangerous, why only speak during a pandemic?! How convenient that they care all of a sudden....

This is another useless politician, must join NDZ at the Nkandla homestead and cock chicken

This isn't a scathing attack but the truth. That petition was created and signed by drunkards. Drunkards are desperate to smoke and will do anything including selling themselves and they were completely used in this petition that seeks to destroy their lives.

But a country can't b run on the whims and caprices of those in power! The question is, is it legal to sell tobacco in SA? If the answer is yes, then tobacco sales should be allowed. Until Govt bases it's current policy on law, then tobacco sales shud be allowed under lockdown

Nobody disputes that tobacco is bad for your health, but its purchase was prohibted to stop the spread of C19. The logic of the 'Zol' is both stupid and disingenuous to the argument. This is her personal opinion and decision. Give us the facts if you dispute.

TB has been around much longer than any disease and also effects the lungs but no cigarette ban....covid comes and suddenly there is a ban on cigarettes🤷‍♀️ oh wait only now someone stands to gain financially from illicit trade and they are in a position now to call the shots😱

Factional politics is killing this country

The automotive industry cause people to die in car accidents. The armaments industry causes people to die from gunshot wounds. The pharmaceutical industry produces drugs upon which people become hooked. The police illegally arrest people. It means not you should ban all.

GATKRUIPER

Stop sucking up Mrs Duarte. You have no role in this debate. Simply put, you are trying to earn ‘brownie points’ with DlaminiZuma. We see right though you and your b***s**t!! It’s time for CyrilRamaphosa to start acting like the boss, and put NDZ in her place! PresidencyZA

We can see who is clearly in the Dlamini Zuma camp. . Shame on you. This is not a totalitarian state. This is a Demicracy.

Dankie dlaminizuma's fellow Mbokodo, leadershiphu united against chimneys

Not as sick as she makes one

ID10T error is what I got when I opened the twatter post ... did I miss something?

Ag sit down and take your psychiatric medication you silly little anc comrade.

Who woke her up she was so quiet I thought she was asleep

Matla!

Those signing the Petition for the unbanning of alchol and cigarettes, just one WhatsApp from ZCC Bishop and two million people will sign to ban it Permanently

Don’t think it’s Democratic when someone makes a decision for others without consultation with those impacted!

And the liquor is also destroying the future of young generation ban both if u ban tobacco, but cigarette never lead anybody to do crime or causing instant death, only liquor causing both crime and instant death.

Nonsense, why charging sin tax. Its a legal business that cant be banned by useless politicians.

Can you smell the conflict of interest?😶
