Leaving and re-entering SA with pending visa after March 2023?

Hi everyone! I want to ask in case anyone might know anything about this. Currently waiting for my Life Partner Visa (applied Feb 2022). I am aware that the directive that allows us to leave and re-enter with our vfs receipt is expiring on the 31st March. I plan on going overseas in the middle of March and would ideally like to extend my trip. I read on this article: Foreign nationals with pending long-term visa applications who are from countries that are exempt from entry visa requirements can depart South Africa and return by showing their Visa Facilitation Service Center (VFS) receipt. I am Namibian, which means I get a 90 day automatic stay in SA. So I am wondering:Does this mean I would be exempt from entry visa requirements? Does this apply even after the 31st of March? Is this article even true? Otherwise, I was also wondering if anyone might know if the directive might get extended again? Any help is greatly appreciated!
