Politicians In A Circulated List Of Confirmed Positive Covid-19 Cases Come Out Clean
Local dailies and blogs have been running the story of panic gripping the parliament and senate over claims that 17 MPs and senators were tested positive for the coronavirus.
While specific names were not given out, Wednesday morning an unconfirmed list was circulated especially on WhatsApp.
However, the list that we can’t post given it’s lack of authenticity has ignited reactions from some of the politicians named as positive.
Ignore this propaganda in the gutter press, about me having tested covid-19 +ve.

I took a voluntary COVID-19 test on Fiiday last week. The result was directly conveyed to me in person by a doctor. Tested Negative. It is my civic duty to continue complying with guidelines. It's not a matter of choice. At the same time parliament cannot abdicate. Chew gum &walk pic.twitter.com/wSXXsafvcl
