"Our Society has lost all forms of social control and social order and makes it very uncomfortable for residents, tourists and investors to take our nation and cities seriously," said Makhubele.
"The video that has gone viral just goes to show the criticality of the civic education programme that we have embarked on in an attempt to create a consciousness of social respect and decent co-existence in our shared spaces."
Makhubele said the city of Joburg cannot call itself a "world-class African city when it is failing to create world-class African law-abiding citizens".

‘"Examples like these truly announce the decay of our self-expression as humans in this country. We need to develop good citizenship values to run a world-class African City", said Makhubele.
Makhubele called for the renewal of civic education from early childhood development.
"As a nation, we are facing an education to regain social order and public decency. It’s upon all of us in all spheres of government to start deliberately building world-class African citizens, and refrain from making jokes out of serious disrespect of public and social ethics," Makubele said.
