“My gentle reminder to them is that they should adhere to all road rules so that we avoid loss of lives.
“Th is year we have been affected by Covid-19 and we still urge people to continue practicing social distancing as well as other safety measures we have been told about by health experts to avoid spreading the deadly virus.
“We should be responsible in everything we do and we wish everyone a Merry Christmas,” he said.
Chimoyo also hailed Zhakata for his commitment and willingness to help.
