Hundreds of market women and buyers trooped to the Kasoa New Market on Day 5 of the lockdown
While some traders in some markets are recording low sales due to the enforcement of the partial lockdown by Ghana's security personnel, the situation is different at the Kasoa New Market.
Just like any normal day in one of the busy markets in Kasoa, which serves as a centre for buyers and traders from surrounding communities, a tour to the place on Day 5 of the lockdown was no different.
Despite the heightened education on the deadly Coronavirus by the media and the government on the need to maintain social distancing, use PPEs and most importantly to stay at home, the brisk activity at the Kasoa new market shows some Ghanaians are yet to understand how dangerous the virus is.
Hundreds of market women, buyers are seen engaging in all kinds of trading activities; with children loitering around in the market.
This was reported by UTV Ghana and monitored by GhanaWeb.
