Zimbabwe Government Set To Ban The Sale Of Alcohol During Weekdays To Maintain Good Health

 According to report from Zimbabwe Mail, the Zimbabwe government is seriously considering placing a ban on the sale of alcohol during weekdays to maintain good health in the lives of its citizens.

Already, a cabinet committee has approved a draft policy outlawing the sale of alcoholic products during certain days, hours, and to pregnant women.  Zimbabwe’s former Health Minister Timothy Stamps, who is the current Health Advisor in the Office of the President and Cabinet, proposed the bill.  

According to him, the policy will help maintain good health, as well as protect people from alcohol abuse. The policy seeks to ban the sale of alcohol during the week and at certain hours of the day.  

The policy will also provide a guideline on the consumption of alcohol in parties like weddings and birthdays, depending on the venue of the party.  Drivers with a blood alcohol concentration of above 0,08 per 100ml will also be arrested, as well as those found selling alcohol to pregnant women.  The policy will give to the police the power to enforce the ban, which includes that any alcohol advertisement should at least be 100 metres away from a road intersection, school, clinic, hospital, church and old people’s homes.

The minister of agriculture and rural developmen Atudu Ogbeh , has said that Nigerian cows are the worst producers of milk across the world. Speaking in Lagos at the 79th anniversary of the Ikoyi Club 1938 on Thursday, September 28, Ogbeh said the cows raised in Nigeria produce far less quantity of milk than other in other parts of the world. The minister said while cows in some countries produce 100 litres of milk daily, an average Nigerian cow produces less than one litre of milk in a day. He also said that the cows in countries like Holland produce 50 litres per day on the average while the US cows have more production.
