The president worked till Wednesday afternoon before retiring to his residence.
As a precaution, he was not allowed to receive any visitor with the presidential villa already looking like a ghost town following the scaling down of activities.

The fumigators arrived at 9.30am and are expected to cover the entire presidential villa.
They fumigated the building housing the president’s office as well as the floors, corridors and major pathways.
