He also charged governments and bodies on renewed emphasis on ensuring citizens embrace the preventive strategies to curtail the spread of COVID-19 and its variants.
“COVID-19 is still with us, it does not seem it will leave so soon. It is for us to do what we are supposed to do to ensure that we defeat it. Government and other organs of government need to rise, reemphasise and reiterate the same message that has been preached over and again so that we can all help ourselves.
“We need to come to a point of responsibility where all of us will make that personal affirmation to ensure that the spread of the virus is curtailed. The battle is not yet over; the earlier we understand that the better for all of us.”
