According to CCTV footage, Oxurub was sitting in the back of the bakkie while the other two guards were sitting in the front. Oxurub is said to have unlocked the doors and walked out to get a taxi.

NO VACCINE, NO SEX Eastern Cape (South Africa) Health MEC Nomakhosazana Meth has said one way to get more men to vaccinate is for women to withhold sex until their partners get the jab. Meth was speaking as the province recorded one million fully vaccinated adults. The Eastern Cape is setting its sights on completing its first vaccination drive by April 2022, by which time it hopes to fully vaccinate a further 3.5 million adults, Health MEC Nomakhosazana Meth said in Gqeberha on Wednesday. While discussing the results, and the concern over the low numbers of men coming forward to be vaccinated, Meth said women, especially unmarried women, should consider withholding sex from unvaccinated men. “I think it is a good idea to say no vaccine, no sex,” Meth said. “Especially for unmarried women. It will protect both of you.” Meth was speaking after the province reached a milestone of having fully vaccinated one million adults – 62% of whom were older than 60. She said 1.6 million people have currently registered for the jab in the province. Meth said the government has consistently expressed its concern over the low numbers of men coming for vaccinations. In the Eastern Cape, 61.98% of the vaccinated population are women and 38.02% are men. “It is too low. It is not good enough. We are doing everything in our power to encourage our brothers, fathers and grandfathers to do the right thing and get vaccinated. We have campaigns mainly aimed at men by taking the life-saving jab directly to them [in places] like taxi ranks, malls, places of having fun and restaurants,” she said. Meth said they should be gathering scientific evidence on why men are hesitant or dismissive of the vaccine. MAVERICK CITIZEN
