Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sun. March 22, 2020 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. The program features our regular PANW report with dispatches on efforts by the South African government to remove refugees from a church in the Western Cape in response to the requirements of preventing the spread of the coronavirus inside the country; the African continent as a whole is taking measures to halt the spread of COVID-19 across the region; a leading governmental official in Kenya has been threatened with arrest after being in self-quarantine for two weeks; and 70 percent of the workforce in the commercial capital of Lagos in the Federal Republic of Nigeria are being told to stay home as the pandemic continues. In the second and third hours we look at the situation internationally with briefings by the World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus; President Cyril Ramaphosa of the ruling African National Congress (ANC) of South Africa; and a panel of ministers from the administration of Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta.
