Kenyan opposition ODM party leader Raila Odinga has accused Tanzania President John Pombe Magufuli of ignoring phone calls from regional leaders who are concerned about the Covid-19 pandemic situation in Tanzania.
According to Raila, Dr Magufuli has refused to heed to calls from his Eat African counterparts including President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya, Uganda’s Yoweri Museveni and Rwanda’s Paul Kagame to institute measures that would slow down the spread of the virus.
“I’ve tried to reach him on phone but I’ve not managed to, and I’ve left him a message on his SMS that I would like to discuss issues of national, regional, and continental importance with him. I think that he as a nationalist need to get information from fellow leaders because this is a regional issue and if we do not control it in Kenya it will affect Tanzania, Uganda, South Sudan, Ethiopia, Rwanda and Burundi because our destiny is tied together,” he said.
