Amidst growing concern over the surging numbers of new COVID-19 infections, opposition strongman, Dr. Kizza Besigye has been appearing on various media platforms analysing government’s response to fight against COVID-19.

Besigye has however used the platforms to give hope to Ugandans on some of the homemade remedies that can help people manage COVID-19.

His advice has not only pleased the citizens but also caught attention of the government officials who are now commending his wisdom which they say will enable the country to respond effectively to COVID-19 pandemic.
