Coronavirus would be defeated - Anglican Bishop assures Ghanaians

Right Reverend Felix Odei Annancy, the Anglican Bishop of Koforidua, has appealed to Ghanaians to strictly abide by the advice of the health experts and the directives of the government so that together the country could defeat the coronavirus.

He encouraged Ghanaians not to underrate the power of God for he had always saved his people from danger and would save the world from the dangers of the coronavirus.

This was contained in the Easter message of Bishop Annancy which was made available to the Ghana News Agency (GNA)at Koforidua in the Eastern Region.

He said this year’s Easter celebration was being observed in an environment of fear and joy.

Bishop Annancy explained that people were fearing the threat of the coronavirus but at the same time they were happy about the message of Easter.

He said over 2000 years ago when Jesus was crucified, the Mary and Mary Magdaline who went to the tomb of Jesus Christ were griped with fear as they experienced an earthquake and also found the tomb of Jesus Christ opened. To further aggravate their fear, they realised that his body could not be found in the tomb, but they became happy when the angel told them that Jesus Christ had risen and taken the lead to Galilee.

Bishop Annancy prayed for God’s guidance for President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and his advisers to take bold and rightful decisions that could save the country from the dangers of the coronavirus.
