“This is a proactive step targeted at curtailing the spread of the coronavirus disease within the House of Assembly complex. ” he said.
“While we underscore the importance of the legislature in a Democratic setting, we’ve allowed essential administrative work and personnel to run upon disinfection of the premises.”
The House however advised the people of the State to consider using the recently deployed e-parliament platforms in getting across to the Assembly during the recess period.
