I lost 3 friends to COVID last week. COVID-19 is fast spreading in our communities, kindly stay safe by taking some simple precautions, such as physical distancing, wearing a mask, keeping rooms well ventilated, avoiding crowds, washing your hands, and coughing into a bent elbow or tissue (dispose immediately).
Stay at home if you begin to feel unwell, even with mild symptoms such as headache and slight runny nose, until you recover.
If you develop fever, cough and difficulty in breathing, seek medical advice promptly.

But giving an account to what led to the incident, the MP for Juaboso, Mr Akandoh in an interview on Joy News monitored by GhanaWeb intimated that, the move by Mrs Owusu-Ekuful came as a surprise to him as she sat on his lap without prior notice.
“…when she came back, she sat on my lap. She just sat on my lap. I didn’t want to touch her,” said Mr Akandoh
