Create A 'Government Relief Fund' To Cater For COVID-19 Patients - Chamisa
MDC Alliance president Nelson Chamisa has urged the government to provide monetary support to individuals and families affected by the coronavirus.
Speaking in a live broadcast on Wednesday, Chamisa said the funds should be sourced from the surplus that has been declared by Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube from government’s 2% tax. He said:
Those who are tested and confirmed positive must get a form of financial support for a month while they fight and the deceased family a government relief fund for their beneficiaries.
FeedbackBereaved families need a Government Relief Fund for the beneficiaries so that we are able to create a social safety net.
Cushioning citizens from economic distress and speed up the roll-out of humanitarian support is vital. We must put in place social protection nets.
