Outspoken Ghanaian millionaire, Ibraah One has suggested to H.E Nana Akufo-Addo to release all prisoners irrespective of their jail term.
Ibraah made the ‘foolish’ suggestion on the grounds that if the president does not free these prisoners, the deadly coronavirus will spread among them.
He claimed Nana Addo has taken the right steps to combat the deadly virus, however, neglecting prisoners is also a great danger hence releasing them will square the combat and prevent the infectious virus from spreading.
His suggestion comes after the president issued a ban on all public gathering until further notice. Also the President, has ordered all schools in the country to be suspended for four (4) weeks as part of the preventive measures to curb the spread of the disease.
In a post sighted on his snapchat, he wrote;
“I salute Nana Addo for taking this decision of suspending schools and all public gatherings until further notice.
This is one of his best decisions ever since he took over power.
But I’ll love to suggest that all prisoners who’re spending their jail time must also be freed to go home for now and come back later to continue their terms when things cool down. We all know the conditions in those prisons. If the virus should break out now, they’ll all die in matter of days.Prisoners are also humans, so they have the right to be freed as a preventive measure against the coronavirus.”
