Mbombela –Mpumalanga, Department of Culture, Sports & Recreation MEC Thandi Shongwe and Minister Nathi Mthethwa are expected to join hands together on an ongoing campaign and tour in encouraging citizens to vaccinate.
The vaccination will be held at Mbombela Stadium in Mpumalanga under the theme Mpumalanga Return to Play – “It’s in your hands”.
The aim of the social mobilisation vaccination tour is to urge creative and sporting industry practitioners to
vaccinate and to voluntarily drive community vaccinations with the objective of unlocking the creative and sporting economy. This Governmental effort is linked to an overall strategy that aims at speaking to economic recovery and reconstruction as well as
protection of lives and livelihoods.
