The COVID19 pandemic has almost left no country spared and about 3 weeks ago Ghana reported its first 2 cases. From then till now Ghana has 137 Confirmed cases with 3 deaths and 2 recoveries.
In order to help combat the virus and stop the spread as soon as possible the President has issued a lock down of Kumasi and Accra the two main capital cities which are the red zones for the pandemic.
The message to be propagated now is to stay at home because the war is at your door step. Getting infected means you and your household. It is going to be quite uncomfortable for the majority of the population however this is for all our sake. May the Lord Protect and Guide us. Stay tune for more updates
