Twitter soldiers have taken to South Africa's social media streets, armed with information and ready to fire at corrupt, compromised or confounding politicians across political camps.
Taking no prisoners and sparing none from their wrath, ostensibly round-the-clock defenders of good governance and democracy are "connecting the dots".
1. Battalions are on standby from Bhisho to Brakpan:
#countryduty , We hereby declare our unalloyed loyalty to the course and mission,Sir!
Eastern Naval Command
(Indian Ocean Battalion)

2. Apparent national leader of the social media defence forces, Tumi Sole, has asked the public to report #PaidTwitter to soldiers on duty. There's now even a @PaidTwitterAlert account:
3. The battle lines are drawn and Guptas (and their fans) are not welcome:
#CountryDuty Gigaba admits that he made the Guptas citizens and now says South Africans must just get over themselves. https://t.co/a2KwCws7kM
