COVID 19: Ghanaians should laud Akuffo Addo for his tremendous efforts
Health Minister, Kwaku Agyemang-Manu, says President Akufo-Addo should be lauded for his tremendous efforts in the country’s fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.
Addressing the press on Wednesday, Mr Agyemang-Manu revealed that the President chose not to sleep to ensure the lives of citizens were protected.
“Our positivity rate is now around 6.9 per cent. How did we get to this level? I think I will urge all of us, media people, those of us working for government, to give a lot of praise and credit to our President.
The Minister for Health, Kwaku Agyeman Manu has asked Ghanaians to give the Akufo-Addo government more time as it implements measures to fix the challenges facing the country.
According to the Minister, the Covid-19 pandemic devastated the economy of most countries and Ghana is no exception. Thus, government is working hard to resuscitate the economy to ease the hardship of the citizenry.
The Minister was responding to the demands of the #FixTheCountry Movement, at a press briefing on Wednesday.
According to him, government has done well in managing the economy through the difficulties posed by Covid-19.
He, therefore, noted that, the government needs time to “fix” the country as being demanded by the Movement.
“And we know that when freight charges go up, there is imported inflation and definitely we will feel something in our country that will accumulate to some little charges,” he stated.
He continued, “We have stopped evaluating all these [effects] and we have gone ahead to form a #FixTheCountry Movement. Yes, government will fix the country but we need time.”
