So far Zimbabwe has recorded 5 cases of Coronavirus, with 1 tragic death. Though our numbers are so far low, we have observed elsewhere how quickly the virus can spread. We are therefore taking decisive action NOW, before it is too late 1/4
On Monday Zimbabwe will go under a total lockdown for 21 days. Everyone must stay at home, except those seeking health services, buying food, medicine & vital supplies, & those manning essential services. I know this will upset all of our daily lives but there is no other way 2/4

One week ago, I announced measures to stabilise our nation’s crucial fuel supply. I was aware that these measures may not be popular, and this was not a decision we took lightly. But it was the right thing to do 1/4
What followed was regrettable and tragic. Everyone has the right to protest, but this was not a peaceful protest. Wanton violence and cynical destruction; looting police stations, stealing guns and uniforms; incitement and threats of violence. This is not the Zimbabwean way 2/4
