Nelson Mandela Bay mayor Nqaba Bhanga has urged residents in new Covid-19 hotspots to emulate the behavioural change that has been adopted by residents of Motherwell.

In contrast, “In Motherwell, there are only nine active cases currently. This is the same place that gave us sleepless nights in the previous waves of infections but we are seeing a difference now.

Stop social gatherings, the mayor pleaded, adding: “We have seen that the economically active population and young people are the ones who are moving around and as a result are the most infected right now.”

Thanks to the mayor but I think national government must just go for a complete shutdown because we residents(citizens) are not listening.
