By James Gwati- Zimbabweans throughout the country are celebrating the easing of COVID-19 lockdown restrictions by President Emmerson Mnangagwa, which will see police withdrawing roadblocks they had established in all roads leading into all towns and cities’ Central Business Districts.

The police were using the COVID-19 lockdown checkpoints as their personal toll gates, through extorting money from motorists and the public.

President Mnangagwa on Monday announced that from tomorrow no COVID-19 lockdown exemption letters will be required for citizens moving in and around towns and cities.

The police were demanding money from citizens they would have found moving around without these exemption letters.
