“I especially invite you not to abandon the preventive gestures against the Covid-19 pandemic enacted by the World Health Organisation WHO and the health authorities of your countries of residence. As icons, some of you participated in the highly appreciated awareness campaign initiated on social networks by FECAFOOT to recall the rules of hygiene and social distancing. I encourage you to continue to be exemplary in any way you can in the fight against this disease. I’m sure, humanity will soon be victorious In the meantime, take care of yourself and your loved ones.” The President writes
