Kwale County Assembly closed for two weeks after Covid-19 positive cases are reported
Kwale County Assembly has been closed for two weeks after positive cases of Covid-19 were reported among some Members of County Assembly (MCA) and other staff.
The news was confirmed by the Speaker Sammy Ruwa who revealed that the Assembly will be sanitized and disinfected during the temporary closure.
He said the closure is a precaution to stop further spread of the virus.
“We have several suspected cases and as a leadership we thought it wise to close down the premises. In the meantime we will be transacting our businesses virtually,” He said.
While it was not immediately established how many persons had tested positive, sources indicated they were all in good health and spirits.
Ruwa said the Assembly will remain out of bound to MCAs, staff and the general public urging the County Assembly staff to work from home, while those affected should proceed to self isolate.
