This must be pleasant news to DPP, particularly APM. We have been suspecting your Covid 19 figures for sometime now. Prof. Chisi has commented on this, that 3 deaths doesn’t seem to support the panic being communicated by Japie

Could have restricted truck drivers months ago other countries transfer drivers at the border or transfer goods to local trucks at the border,
No entry should have been NO ENTRY

Very poor planning on the part of the Government two separate Covid-19 Virus committees yet still cannot get it right.
No worries NEW GOVERNMENT June 23rd will fix your incompetence.

Busy building a case to justify the postponement of the Presidential election. We know your target is 100 so that you seek court’s intervention, but this will not work till we vote.

Benin West African Country despite Covid-19 went ahead with the election even though calls for a delay. Democracy has a price.
