Coronavirus: Ghana’s Borders Remain Closed – Akufo-Addo

Ghana will close all land, sea and air borders to human traffic until further notice, President Nana Akufo-Addo has reiterated.

This, he said, is part of new measures to combat COVID-19 (coronavirus) as positive cases climb to 378 with six deaths.

In his 6th address on Thursday April 9, 2020, on measures taken by the government against the spread of coronavirus , President Akufo-Addo said the decision to close down the borders has been justifiable.

He explained that 79 percent of over 300 confirmed cases were imported.

“Clearly until we have the situation fully under control, we cannot at this time open our borders. They will have to remain shut until further notice'', President Akufo-Addo stressed.
