I will not be fed at a burial without it.
The "Provincial Administration" will not give me services until I produce one.
The PYT I am sponsoring will deny me "landing" rights unless I show her "mine."
The "security guard" at the local "mall" has got additional duties starting today. Ensuring nobody in until they flash one.
Some mpigs have resolved to withhold bursary cheques until parents produce this "token."
Some Governors have given their clerical officers instructions to withhold tenda cheques to anyone who does not produce this mere acknowledgement slip without legal backing or basis.
