The Catholic Archbishop of Juba Most Rev. Stephen Ameyu Martin is calling on the government of South Sudan to consider total lockdown to prevent further spread of Coronavirus.
Speaking to ACI correspondent on Tuesday on a telephone interview in Juba Archbishop Ameyu said he prefers that the country goes for total lockdown, especially in Juba where the rate of infection is very high.
He advises the government to distribute food to citizens during total lock down to address issues of hunger and safety from this pandemic.
The archbishop expresses concern that some people are looking at Coronavirus as if it’s not a deadly disease. He urges the citizens to observe the health emergency measures seriously for their own safety.
