South Africa’s Chief Justice Defends ‘Devil Covid-19 Vaccine’ Prayer

South Africa’s chief justice has said he “doesn’t care” about the backlash over his prayer against a Covid-19 vaccine “that was of the devil”.

He was filmed last week praying fervently against vaccines “meant to corrupt people’s DNA”, drawing public criticism.

But Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng over the weekend said he was not a scientist but a “prayer warrior” who was concerned about the safety of vaccines.

He said people must be free to express themselves regardless of the position they hold in society.

He was quoted as saying “I don’t care about the consequences. We’ve been quiet for far too long, toeing the line,” while questioning the imposition of a vaccine on people.
