This, as government employees will be taking to the streets to voice their dissatisfaction with corruption and government’s failure to honour salary increases, amongst other issues. A Free State government employee, who would like to remain anonymous, says that as an essential worker during the coronavirus pandemic, it is very disheartening that the government is not approving a salary increase agreement. 

She explains that many essential workers - for the sake of the nation - sacrificed themselves and their families to ensure that government receives the right information from the ground to report to the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the country. 

She further expresses her anger at individuals who looted Covid-19 funds to benefit themselves.
