Say no to PDA?
Senate Majority Leader Kipchumba Murkomen has urged the Ministry of Health to ban handshakes, huggings and kissing as a measure to prevent Kenyans from contracting the coronavirus.
Murkomen says, the President receives many visitors at State House, both local and international, and this has exposed him at great risk of contracting the virus in case one of his guests carry it.
He also emphasised that it is at this point a National Security issue and the country should not treat it lightly.
Shaking of hands,hugging&kissing in Kenya should be banned by the @MOH_Kenya to deal with #Covid_19 . The President should be prevented from shaking hands&all visitors to statehouse or other offices should tested before meeting the President.This is a matter of National Security.

Not only the president, the Deputy President, and other state officers too.
The same should apply to the Deputy President and other state officers.

And our schools and those managing public places in Kenya.
The managers of our schools, universities, churches and other public facilities should be taken through the preventive measures against #Covid_19
