The initiative, he said, is to ease the hardship the partial lockdown has brought as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

The two-week partial lockdown of Accra, Tema, Kumasi, and Kasoa is in force as Ghana begins its most drastic measure to fight the novel coronavirus pandemic.

He also donated two thousand bags of rice, two thousand boxes of vegetable cooking oil and thousand boxes of sardines to the residents.
