This is a measure to help curb the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in Kwaku and its neighbouring communities.

In a statement, the Kwahu Traditional Council said natives living outside of the town should stay where they are until further notice.

The Chiefs also instructed that people residing in Kwahu are banned from moving out of the town during these distressing times.
