Following feelings of trepidation of a potential spread of the Omicron variation, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has educated against the resuming with respect to Ghana's property borders.
Tending to the country on Wednesday, December 15, 2021, the President said the choice structures part of the public authority's endeavors at forestalling the fourth flood of Covid-19 in Ghana.
"We are observing the degree of danger of the sickness and progressing inoculations in our adjoining nations, and, when we are fulfilled that it is protected to do as such, the boundaries will be opened. Up to that point, I accept this isn't the ideal opportunity to resume our property borders, particularly as not really set in stone to forestall the fourth wave, and, thusly, they will stay shut until additional notification," the President expressed.
While recognizing the difficulties brought about by the conclusion of the nation's property borders, the President said the move is to the greatest advantage of the country.
"To my kindred Ghanaians living along the lines of our country, I am aware of the troubles occasioned by the conclusion of our lines."
"As you most likely are aware, the choice to close our lines, which are a wellspring of occupations for some, was vital in light of the fact that we needed to restrict the importation of the infection into the country."
President Akufo-Addo in March 2020 arranged the conclusion of the nation's lines as a feature of endeavors to forestall the spread of the Covid.
The land borders have just been permitting the entry of freight.
Occupants of Elubo in the Western Region and Ketu South in the Volta Region have fought to request the prompt resuming of the Elubo and the Aflao borders, individually.
The occupants said the ceaseless conclusion of the land borders is contrarily influencing their occupations.
