In an exclusive interview with radio Anisa the two said that even though comedy is meant to make people laugh about the jokes, they are now using it as tool to sensitize people about coronavirus and how serious it is.

 “People in the society trust us, so we believe that the way they love our jokes, they will also take the messages we give about coronavirus seriously” Danny Bikoyo said.

 Batrus Gali has therefore called the community at large to be careful while advising the married couple especially husbands to be on the frontline in making sure that all the preventive measures are observed at homes.
