Essential services available for normal business, says Controller
The Controller of the State of Emergency and Police Commissioner David Manning has assured the public that whilst the State of Emergency is underway all emergency services are continuing to run as normal.
“I want people to understand that this State of Emergency is a special operation to address the coronavirus pandemic. However, essential services will continue so that our people are not disadvantaged in any way.
“Besides being engaged in the whole of government response to COVID-19 the police is still attending to its normal business. We are making sure that health facilities both at the national and provincial as well as district levels function. We are ensuring that power, water and other essential services continue. Shops, markets and other essential business such as fuel stations, telecommunication services, and banking services will be available to the public.
“The 14 day nationwide lockdown period is in force to help us stop the pandemic from spreading. People spread the disease. So we hope that when we stop people from moving we will effectively stop the virus from spreading.
“We ask for the people’s patience and understanding during this period,” Mr Manning said.
