Kumasi Central market closed over traders’ blatant disregard for social distancing protocols

Authorities of the Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly have ordered with immediate effect the closure of the Kumasi Central market hours after President Akufo-Addo ordered the opening of the lockdown areas.

According to Ultimate FM’s Isaac Bediako Justice, the closure was necessitated by the refusal of the traders to observe social distancing protocols or adhere to any other precautionary measures to salvage the COVID-19 pandemic.

“There are many people at the market, they are not wearing gloves and masks and no social distancing,” Bediako reported from the Central Market yesterday.

Most netizens have raised concerns as to how some Ghanaians are downplaying the severity of the Novel Coronavirus.
