The Minister of Information, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, says neither the president nor any member of government has tested positive to the coronavirus.
Speaking at a news confrence in Accra, he took a swipe at individuals who peddle false information on social media about the global pandemic.
“Those who even in these trying times take delight in fabricating stories and throwing them out there on social media sometimes for political purposes and sometimes for mere humour, we would want to discourage that as much as possible. There are stories going around that the President and some ministers have tested positive for Coronavirus. You have seen it on social media. It is not true,” he said.
“We will like to encourage that if you have access to a platform, use it to encourage compliance with preventive etiquettes so that we can save as many lives as possible,” he said.
