“This demands that the national interest guides all our actions. And would require that political parties do not claim ownership of ideas or insist on taking credit for any successes”.
“We are in this battle together against an invisible enemy”.
“I am, therefore, calling for cooperation among all the actors and, in particular, close collaboration between the government, our security agencies and traditional leaders in enforcing the government’s directives and required social distancing protocols.”
