“People in Ghana are now talking about a lockdown. Majority of people who will be affected by decisions of that nature are the working people of our country – the ordinary ones who will be affected, and it is important for us to take into account the circumstances and conditions.
“When we lock down Accra, what are the consequences? A responsible government is required to look at all the implications before decisions are made. And that is the exercise we are currently engaged in, and I am hoping that much sooner than later we will come to an agreement on what those measures are and the Ghanaian people will be informed,” he stated during a meeting with the leadership of Trade Union Congress (TUC).
