Many have opined that the government is finding ways and means of embezzling the budgeted $100million which is meant to be used to prepare for the outbreak of the pandemic.

Other speculations fast spreading across the country states that the ruling government had all this planned out just to misuse the $100 Million allocated for the combat of CODVID-19 for their campaign in the upcoming elections.

The information Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah speaking in an interview on Onua Fm has challenged anyone who doesn’t believe there have been two recorded cases of COVID-19 in Ghana to find the victims quarantined, hug them and watch the consequences.
