The Suva City Council’s plan to decontaminate the City is turning to fruition after receiving four new Gasoline Mist blower disinfection equipment.

Special Administrators Chair, Isikeli Tikoduadua says the assistance from Cecilia Laisani-Keil, a concerned Fijian who resides along Princes Road in Suva comes at a right time.

He adds the equipment will boost the Council’s quest to contain the spread of COVID-19, particularly at various hot spots.

These include the bus stand, municipal markets, and shops that have been given the green light to resume operations.

“We are fighting against the new variant which is very contagious – the delta variant. Because it is the spray that is mechanical it will come in very handy for us especially for Suva because of the type of structures that we have in Suva.”

Laisani-Keil is hopeful her little contribution to the collective effort of the Council and the Health Ministry to contain the spread of the virus will be helpful.

Laisani-Keil spent a little over $9,000 to procure the four mist blower.

She is calling on Fijians to brush aside their differences and work together to defeat this killer virus.

“If anybody or everybody can donate and do their own machine and spray their own areas and then share it with other people and it would be of great help to the government.”

Tikoduadua says SCC Health Department workers have been trained to carry out the decontamination as soon as practicable, using the new sprays.
