Developed countries like China, USA, Italy, England and others have trebled their efforts in the fight against the pandemic and gradually on their way to success.
Down in Ghana, the fight continues with the Government and other stakeholders campaigning feverishly against the spread of the devastating disease.

Some believes the disease which has killed prominent Ghanaians like Lawyer Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie (Sir John), Anthony KK Sam (Sekondi-Takoradi Mayor), Dr. Richard Kisser and a host of others is not real.
Since President Akufo-Addo in one of his address to the nation made wearing of face/nose masks compulsory, it has to take the military and other security agencies to force some Ghanaians to adhere to that.

As if that is not enough, Citi FM in one of their bulleting, reported that some wilful youth in the Kumasi Metropolis have started engaging in football and other sporting activities which has been banned by the government as one of the ways to curb the pandemic.
This has resulted to a call from some assembly members to the youth to desist from engaging in the obsolete behavior with the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly planning to collaborate with the military and other security agencies to uproot this stubbornness.
Not only in Kumasi, but also in Takoradi of the Western Region where some youth have begun playing football thus breaching the social distancing and other Coronavirus safety protocols.
