“We would rather fight the consequences of hunger than the consequences of 10,000, 20,000 people infected…,” Said Governor Lee Kinyanjui.

While addressing the press, the Nakuru county boss said that as a county, their capacity to manage medical cases that require ICU is very limited and therefore if the disease is allowed to continue spreading there is going to be a total disaster in the near future.

The governor also added that the public are just living as if Covid 19 does not exist despite the awareness and the education given to them, he now pleads with the national government to place a total lockdown immediately.
