Some Ghanaian workers are angry at the President, Nana Akufo Addo for failing to show think about them during his nation’s address yesterday evening on the steps taken in fighting the coronavirus.
Nana Akufo Addo for the 2nd time speaking to the Nation since the outbreak of Coronavirus revealed some measures that the government and the Ministry of Health have put in place to prevent the further spread of the virus.
In the President’s speech, he stated that all schools from basic to tertiary are all to be closed down until further notice, all churches, mosques are also not to operate for the next four weeks as well as all social gathering are supposed to be postponed until further notice starting today Monday 16th March 2020.
For workers, he explained that they are supposed to return to but to make sure they put in safety measures at their various workplaces so as to prevent the spread of the virus.
But this directive from the President didn’t go down well with some workers who took to social media to question if truly the President cares about them because so far 6 cases have been confirmed in the country.
According to them, countries that are more developed and equipped in the health sector have even under lockdown but he wants them to go to work and get infected by the virus.
