Government is not supposed to pay for their transport costs. Ku SA anapita okha with their own transport money, noone forced them to go. Amene akufuna kubwerako has to take care of his or her transport costs. Government will just facilitate the transportation arrangements and make sure that Covid issues are well taken care of.

Covid-19: The Movie – we need the returnees to help in the development of our beautiful country. We need labour for growing cotton, tobacco and sugarcane.
