Coronavirus: Trucks of food arrive in Kumasi

Trucks of dry food, mainly rice, have arrived in Kumasi to be distributed to vulnerable communities struggling to feed under the partial lockdown.

The food items were handed over to faith-based organizations and the various MMDCEs and DCEs to spearhead the distribution.

Speaking in an interview with Ultimate FM’s Isaac Bediako Justice, Deputy Gender Minister Freda Prempeh said the dry food will be repackaged into smaller bags for household distribution.

She explained that other vulnerable groups like head porters and homeless groups will be fed daily until the partial lockdown is over.
