Wishing my mentor Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi a speedy recovery after testing #Covid19 positive as announced by his family. “We are pleased to say that, as with his first bout in August last year, he remains relatively asymptomatic and in good spirits.”

@Ericlalelani

Now my friend, his supporters have blessed him with a lot of municipalities under his party’s control. That is proof he has support on the ground.

Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi. I love him. On the other hand it amazes me how a fully vaccinated someone is catching it when experts said you can not get it. Be strong Buthelezi. Speedy recovery.

@Shepherdsilayi

My question is how did doctors and the government hope to achieve herd immunity of 70% from a vaccine that is not giving you immunity from the virus or were we played from the beginning? @Mzima_lumkile

Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi at 93 years old will beat Covid-19 for the second time. You are 23 and you are scared of it, get out of here.

@Thangomandla

Guys are you sure the vaccine they gave Joe Bidden is the same vaccine they give prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi? I’m starting to doubt this vaccine, no, no, no there is a hidden agenda here.

@Mhayise_sedana

Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi vaccinated twice and it’s the second time he gets Covid-19. I have not been vaccinated and have never been infected. So, these vaccines are like drinking a six pack of Savannah the next day to cure a hangover.

@Yocoforum

Wishing Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi speedy recovery from Covid. You can beat it. You have been fighting and winning. This too shall pass.

Media focusing on Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi being vaccinated and positive, whilst Minister Lindiwe Zulu is also fully vaccinated and allegedly recovering from Omicron at home.

Media and political scientists are the worst things that have ever happened. Vaccines do not prevent you from getting infected but they help you in fighting viruses whenever you find yourself in trouble. Prince Buthelezi is fully vaccinated we know, so what?
