Harris said that children are also having a tough time this year, there schools were cancelled, exams got cancelled and they can’t even enjoy a good Halloween.

“In relation to Halloween, let me say this, it’s going to be different this year, it’s not a good idea to start trapesing around to everybody’s house but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a good time,” he said.

The Minister asks the children to spend some good time with their parents and family by dressing up in scary costumes, watching movies and playing games.

He also said that there must be cautions in everything because he doesn’t want children to affected with Covid-19 as they celebrate Halloween. Thus, he is asking both children and parents to follow the rules and guidelines setup by the government.
