Security personnel stationed at Lapaz, a suburb of Accra, to enforce the lockdown directives by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo chose to educate drivers who ply that route on Coronavirus and also gift these drivers hand gloves and nose masks.

To prove to Ghanaians that the Police is indeed a friend to the civilian, all drivers who used the Lapaz-N1 Highway on Friday were inspected to ensure they were wearing PPEs, those who didn't have were immediately given some to put on.

This as a measure is to contain the spread of the deadly Coronavirus among the Ghanaian populace.

Some parts of the country are currently under a mandatorily partial lockdown. These are Accra, Kumasi, Tema, and Kasoa.

Ghana as of yesterday has recorded 205 Coronavirus cases with 5 deaths and a good number of recoveries.
