But chonde a MSCE ndi a 8 agolembako chifukwa adalipira kare komaso polemba amakhala patalipatali almost one meter apart
It was a blessing in disguise for APM to leave stage, people wouldn’t have listened to him on the justification not to open schools by 13 July.
Uli ndi nzeru….. APM is Hero unSUNG….
Agree with you George Malema.
Koma seriously uyu ndiwosayenera kuyendetsa maphuziro. coming with incomplete information is traumatising.
The Commission set that date of 13th in good time but the Ministry was sleeping on its duty without making all the precaution measures. If the reason is that the Covid-19 figures are increasing, do you think the figures will go down sooner. Suppose the figures keep on rising until 2022 will the schools remain closed. Just put up measures so that learners, teachers, staff members are all protected from this pandemic.
I don’t think you have children
They are waiting for vaccine to be ready
suggest a measure please.
Lord have mercy on us, free us from the pandemic.
