State of Emergency 6-month proposal hits brick wall at BDP caucus

Some members, according to a source, said the economy of the country would collapse if the country does not have a clear plan of how companies will survive in that period. 

“The meeting was attended by both backbenchers and Cabinet ministers. The Minister of Health and Wellness Dr Lemogang Kwape told the caucus that the virus cannot be controlled in a short time and six months will enable the government to monitor movement of people. He told us that the country still has results that they are waiting for,” the source said.
