Gyan also took the opportunity to educate the residents about the Coronavirus disease and the need to adhere to the precautionary measures to avoid the spread of the pandemic.
Before the donation, Asamoah Gyan had earlier called on Ghanaian celebrities and the well-to-do in the society to help the government by joining the campaign against the pandemic.
“As an icon, people look up to me. I urge all celebrities, all those who are fortunate, let’s give back to the community because this is the time that people need up. People need our support,”
“Let’s do this to help the government because the government cannot do this alone. We can’t depend on the government, these are our lives. We have to protect one another; we have to stick together.
“Let’s take precaution, stay at home, use your hand sanitizers, let’s do everything possible to protect ourselves,” he concluded.
