By James Gwati-President Emmerson Mnangagwa was today forced to travel and get his second dose of COVID-19 vaccine by the low uptake of the jab by his Kwekwe home town people.

The president said this at Kwekwe hospital after receiving his second dose of the vaccine.

“I came here because I wanted to inspire the people of Kwekwe to get the vaccine because I heard that there was a low uptake of the vaccines,” he said.

“I am pleased to receive my second here in Kwekwe and I encourage communities here in Midlands to get vaccinated,” he said
