“They say me as a Deputy General Secretary, if I have not vaccinated and have a vaccination card I will not enter. Whether you are the President, or Chairman Blay, if you do not have a covid card you will not enter.

"If you are the Vice President or the Party’s General Secretary coordinating the whole programme, if you do not have the card you will not enter, it is not a fight,” he said.
