Akufo-Addo’s lockdown is a crime to humanity – Presidential aspirant

Independent presidential aspirant Onipayede Ossom Teye, has stated in an interview with MyNewsGh.com that President Akufo-Addo’s approach to fighting the deadly coronavirus is a crime against humanity.

According to the presidential aspirant, residents cannot be locked up for two weeks without food or water.

“You ordered a lockdown and you didn’t provide for food or water but instead you provided the security agencies with guns … this means if you provoke the military man he can shoot and kill”, he told MyNewsGh.com.

Onipayede added that considering how things are going, it will get to a point where persons with NPP ID cards will be the only persons allowed to go out.

Meanwhile President Akufo-Addo in his televised address to the nation yesterday announced that for the months of April, May, and June, all Ghanaians will not be paying water bills for the next three months as the government will absorb all the cost.

“All water tankers, publicly and privately-owned, are also going to be mobilized to ensure the supply of water to all vulnerable communities,” he said.
