She said that isolation and quarantine was only for suspected, probable or confirmed cases after health screening, and so far there had been no suspected cases. “Health officers assess the suspects and go through the process, they are then followed up to assess their progress over the days. They report to health officials every three days, for 21 days,” she said.
Motshegwa further said that after the 21-day detention, the monitored persons would be certified free of the virus.
The Botswana High Commission in Nigeria said last week, following the collapse of the SCOAN multi-storied guesthouse, the 10 Batswana who were on a visit there had all been accounted for.
The Batswana were reportedly said to be in the building next door when the disaster happened, and that was how they escaped.
TB Joshua’s popularity in Botswana soared after a wildly successful crusade in Botswana in 2005, during which many people were reportedly healed from various ailments and conditions.
