President Cyril Ramaphosa says every South African has the right to approach the courts and even he, as president, could never stand in the way of anybody exercising that right.
In his weekly newsletter on Monday, the president said: \"While we would prefer to avoid the need for any legal action against government, we should accept that citizens who are unhappy with whatever action that government has decided on implementing have a right to approach our courts for any form of relief they seek.
Since the start of this crisis, a number of people have exercised their right to approach the courts,\" Ramaphosa said.
Ramaphosa said there has been, and will continue to be, robust and strident critique of a number of aspects of government's national response to the coronavirus, from the data modelling and projections, to the economic effects of the lockdown, to the regulations.
\"Just as government appreciates that most court applicants are motivated by the common good, so too should we recognise that the decisions taken by government are made in good faith and are meant to advance, and not to harm, the interests of South Africans.\"
Luanda — Luanda's Cassenda neighbourhood residents have breathed a sigh of relief on Wednesday, after the authorities decided to lift the sanitary lockdown they were in for lingering 16 days.
Ahead of the lifting of the sanitary lockdown, the authorities tested 160 specimens linked to people suspected of having had direct contact with those infected.
As a result, Futungo de Belas neighbourhood remains under a lockdown, pending the results of 300 residents tests.
In addition to lifting the lockdown, the authorities issued tested residents with covid-19 negative result certificates.
Under sanitary lockdown is also Hoji-Ya-Henda neighbourhood, in Luanda's high density suburb of Cazenga, where 3.335 specimens were collected and a few infections detected, linked to the so-called case 31, a Guinea Conakry national with more than 75 contacts.
As there was celebration that 1,044 Jamaican nationals were being landed at the historic Falmouth Port in Trelawny after being stranded for two months at sea, tragedy was unfolding as a 10-week pregnant woman who was a worker on the Adventure of the Seas cruise ship lost her child.
Before the Adventure of the Seas could be landed at the port on Tuesday, an alarm was raised that there was a medical emergency on the ship.
The crew member fell ill on Monday evening as the ship drifted east of Jamaica.
Hours before the emergency, the ship halted forward speed about 100 miles away from Falmouth as it awaited Government approval to enter Jamaica’s maritime space.
Health Minister Dr Christopher Tufton yesterday addressed the issue of whether a request for help from the ship was denied.
