“The people are welcoming and they are starting to understand.

“We must keep on doing these campaigns to help people understand because there is a bit of lack of information around this and we speak English most of the time people don’t understand as they should,” said Mabaso.

He advised the public to adhere to the lockdown regulations and stay at home, to observe social distancing and keep their hands clean.
