1. Axel, pineapple retailer : '’ I recently bought a mask, a pair of gloves and a 250
ml bottle of hydroalcoholic solution to have my hands always clean. This is the
least I can do. But the business is getting harder, for customers are no longer
ordering pineapples.’’
2. Mr. Peter Kong, Secretary General of the National Retailers Trade Union : '’ In
response to the Head of State's call to respect the barrier measures, the
members of our trade union went down in markets to meet retailers, to
sensitise them on the need to strictly observe the hygiene rules to better
prevent the spread of the virus in open markets. We do understand how
important it is, but we hope to get support from public authorities to distribute
all the protective equipment for free to retailers throughout the national
territory''.
3. Mrs Chantal Ngassa, Mayor of Yaounde V : '’ Our attention is focused on
mitigating the spread of the virus in markets and open places where retailers
do their business. We intend to buy the necessary equipment to distribute it to
retailers, notably masks, hand sanitizers, soaps and buckets. We will also
provide for public fountains where retailers and customers will wash their
hands as regularly as requested'’.
