The Zimbabwean Home Affairs minister Hon. Kazembe Kazembe has just announced fresh Covid-19 measures to curb the spread of the pandemic.
You might recall that this is the same minister that went undercover to the passport office which resulted in one tout getting arrested and as we speak he is already serving time for touting.
The minister announced the measures below;
To facilitate movement to and from work people will be allowed to travel between 0600hrs to 1000hrs in the morning and between 1530hrs and 1800hrs after which the curfew will kick in. In between 1000hrs and 1530hrs police will continue to enforce the lockdown regulations
It looks like if you are going to get into town after 10am you might face challenges, this announcement also coincides with the huge traffic jam that occurred in Chitungwiza this morning, where motorists were told to go back home by law enforcement.
Covid-19 cases are on the upward trend of late, and there are some bodies that are already calling for a total lockdown.
Whether this materializes, time will tell.
