He urged the people to evoke the spirit of communalism to battle the effects of the Corona virus in the society.
The Senator before the commencement of the program had personally distributed 5000 face masks and conducted infrared testing on those who came to collect the items for onward distributions to the communities in the senatorial district, as a means of reemphasing the reality of the disease that has killed thousands of people across the globe.
