The President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has urged Ghanaians to eat local food to boost their immune system.
This is the second time the president has stated in his statement that Ghanaians should eat local food to enable their bodies to fight the coronavirus pandemic should they contract the virus.
“I am, thus, in no way suggesting that we should let our guard down, and throw out of the window the efforts we have made in bringing us this far, where we have become a reference point for many in the handling of this pandemic. On the contrary, as we begin to ease the restrictions, we must be even more disciplined in our adherence to the personal hygiene and social distancing measures we have become accustomed to, we must keep fit, and we must continue to eat our local foods to boost our immune systems. This is how we can prevent our healthcare services and our heroic healthcare workers from being overwhelmed, due to an increase in demand for hospital care,” he said.
