Nana Akufo-Addo praised the churches for their contributions to the spread of information about the pandemic.
“The churches in Ghana almost rose to play a very important role as a man-to-man to bring relief and sustenance to our people who are trying to go through this very difficult period of COVID-19,” he said.
Speaking at the Jubilee House with the leadership of the All-African Council of Churches, Nana Akufo-Addo emphasized that collaboration between the church and government was evident during the outbreak.
“Today, Coronavirus is a relatively innocuous disease about which we know a lot.” It was unknown and difficult to understand back then, but the churches played an important role in finding solutions for the people of Ghana, and I will continue to express my deep appreciation and gratitude.”
