Working with the police
“Your mission is to go out and defend the people of South Africa. The SANDF must work with the police, walk among our people and defend them against Covid-19.
“You are called upon to do so in the most understanding, most respectful and most supportive way.”
Save lives
“This is the time for SAPS to provide a service to the people of South Africa. I call upon you from the bottom of my heart to have a notion of going out to save lives.
“If you know this, you will be supported. You must advise, guide and lead the way. That is what we expect.”
Chancers
“There will be those who take chances and cut corners, deliberately challenging the state.
"This is not the time to play with fire. The people of South Africa must follow the rules. We are deadly serious about saving lives. Those who do wrong things will feel the wrath of the South African state.”
