Why weren’t other shows cancelled?

Letters

THOUSANDS of Goroka Show participants were saddened when they were turned away from the Goroka Show entrance on Friday morning.
The popular and most attractive cultural event in the country was cancelled.
The authorities are saying the show was cancelled due to the surge in Coronavirus cases in the province, but there were other activities in the town that attracted crowds.
Eastern Highlands Governor Peter Numu should have released a statement months before the show’s date.
Why hasn’t the police commissioner released a statement in relation to Delta variant and the risk involved with the event?
What were they doing the whole of last month?
Why wasn’t the Mt Hagen Show not cancelled?
Why wasn’t Wabag Show not cancelled?
