Former President Jerry John Rawlings has urged all Ghanaians to seriously observe the safety measures put in place by the government to stem the spread of the coronavirus.
He noted that “isolation is key to protecting ourselves from the COVID-19 virus and it is in support of measures taken by the government to mitigate the spread of the virus.”
This was contained in a statement signed by Kobina Andoh Amoakwa, Communications Director for the former president.
Ghana’s case count as on Thursday was 132 with three deaths.
Meanwhile, former President Rawlings says his office is closed until further notice.
The closure of the office is due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic and is aimed at protecting both staff and visitors alike.
Former President Rawlings has in the past few days voluntarily tested for the virus and received a negative result.
