As the lockdown enters its fifth month, shack dwellers in a newly built informal settlement in Soshanguve say they are being evicted and have nowhere else to go.
ALL 14 regions of the country will on Monday migrate to stage 3 of the lockdown exit strategy for the next 28 days - except for Walvis Bay, which will go back to stage 1 until 8 June.
Case number 21 is a truck driver (43) who had allegedly contravened quarantine regulations and visited various businesses.
Health minister Kalumbi Shangula said Walvis Bay is a major destination for travellers from high-risk countries.
He said stage 1 regulations will include the closure of schools and higher education institutions, the prohibition of public gatherings of more than 10 people, the banning of travelling without a permit as well as the sale of alcohol, and the restriction of movement.
Shangula said stage 3 involves the relaxation of some regulations, such as gatherings of not more than 50 people being allowed.

“With one hand on the Bible, and the other hand on my gun, so help me God, we will restore constitutional legislation to the state of Texas,” he said
