"content": "It is needless to say that COVID-19 has a greater impact in this country in terms of lives lost and economic losses during lockdowns. I agree with Sen. Wetangula that as we endeavour to popularize ourselves, let us be very careful with the lives of Kenyans. If we care about this country and the people we want to support, then the least we can do is to engage in activities that can increase the spread of the disease because the same people that we claim to care about are the first ones to be affected when there is a lockdown. When there is a lockdown, it is people with small business who are affected most like the mama mbogas. When there is a lockdown, they cannot sell their vegetables and fruits to hotels because hotels are also closed during a pandemic. The same mama mboga will not have money to buy food, pay school fees and rent. We normally claim that we care about people at the bottom of the pyramid but end up spreading the disease further."
