After the National State of Disaster was extended, some of us began to wonder if it would ever end. President Ramaphosa has said the end is near, but the DA has since announced its decision to take the matter to court.

We’ve been in the National State of Disaster for quite some time in South Africa, so much so that some of us may feel as though we can’t really remember life before – life just over two years ago.

While President Ramaphosa has indicated that the end could be near, opposition party the Democratic Alliance is attempting to race to the finish line.Today, DA Federal Leader John Steenhuisen issued a statement that outlined the partys’ perspective of the extension. The reasoning for the ‘irrational extension’ from the DA’s view includes low risk from COVID-19, No need to maintain the state of disaster or the lockdown, a positive impact on poverty and jobs, a negative impact on service delivery a lack of justification and safeguarding our democracy.
