Residents of Jeppes Reef near the Matsamo
border with Swaziland last Sunday gathered
to kill and eat a baboon which was found
wandering on the streets during lockdown.

When pictures of the slaughter emerged on
social media, it prompted Mpumalanga MEC
for community safety, security & liaison
Gabisile Shabalala to warn the community
that they were breaking the lockdown
regulations as well as the law.

“This now wrong; as the department we
condemn the behaviour of some communities
[together] with the one in Nkomazi
[municipality] where people decided to kill an
animal in large numbers," Shabalala said.

"We are warning against such gatherings
because that is against the lockdown
regulations [about] where people should now
gather, as we are trying to curb the spread of
the coronavirus pandemic. Again, it’s criminal
to even kill an animal just because they have
seen it in the community. It is deeply
regrettable that our people would still gather
in such a manner. We are appealing [to them]
to work with us and stay at home during this
difficult phase. To save the public, the police
should act against such behaviour,” Shabalala
added.

One community member who didn’t want to
be named told Sowetan that they initially
thought the baboon was from a certain
house.

“People came in large numbers and we were
told that it [the baboon] was from a person
whom was suspected to be casting spells
using it. But some people decided to burn
and eat it because they said that was meat,”
said the community member.

To those hypocritical "Animal Right Activist" scattered all over this forum, this is South Africa, a country that cherish wildlife, killing and eating a baboon.

If it happens to be Nigeria, you'll see foolish comments like;

"Nigerians can eat anything"

"The poor baboon does not deserve to die like this"

"How can you eat your ancestors"

Actually, it is white people that came from monkeys or rather baboons came from them. Africans are the only specie that is 100% human beings.
