CALL OF WORLD HEALTH DAY

Durban: 7 April 2004

It is particularly relevant to South Africa that the theme of World Health Day, which is being celebrated today, is road safety, Musa Zondi IFP National Spokesperson said today.

Musa Zondi said:

"South Africa has one of the highest road accident rates in the world. On the occasion of World Health Day, which this year has road safety as its theme, we call upon all South African drivers and pedestrians to be extra vigilant when using our roads."

"This is especially important with the busy Easter holiday season coming up, and when many people will also be taking advantage of the election period to extend their breaks."
