The Member of Parliament for Yapei Kusawgu Constituency, has urged President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to return to Ghana to help in educating Ghanaians on the Coronavirus; COVID 19.
President Akufo-Addo is currently on a 12-day working visit to Scotland, Norway, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Belgium. He is set to return to Ghana on March 4, 2020.
However, the NDC MP, during a panel interaction on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo', urged the President to cut short his trip immediately.
"We need to prepare well; I thought by now there should be a major awareness creation ongoing so that everyone will know what to do…I think the president must come back to Ghana and lead the campaign," he said.
He further asked religious leaders who are playing "religion with this to please leave it alone; this is not lotto numbers, this is a serious health matter; leave it to the health professionals."

How dare you telling the President and the clergy what to do. This guy is very annoying. Who the hell does he think he is. He should go and fuck himself.
GHANAIANS HAVE AND KNOW ONLY ONE JJ. AND HE IS NOT THIS GUY. WHY THIS CONFUSION.THE ONLY JJ IN THIS COUNTRY IS MR JERRY JOHN RAWLINGS NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS.
THE EVIL THAT MEN DO LIVES AFTER THEM". THE NDC SEES NOTHING GOOD IN ANY GOOD THING. FOR YOU INFORMATION, THE PRESIDENT IS NOT ON AN EXCURSION TO DUBAI WITH YOUNG GIRLS LIKE OTHERS DID, HE IS OUT THERE FOR THE SAKE OF YOU CHILDREN'S CHILDREN, HE'S OUT THERE FOR A BETTER TOMORROW FOR GHANA. ARE YOU SAYING HI'S LIEUTENANTS CANT CONTROL AFFAIRS SHOULD ANYTHING CROP UP? WE WOULD WANT YOU TO SPEAK ON ATUBIGA'S STATEMENT ON THE AIRBUS AND NOT POSITIVE THINGS THAT WILL AT THE END BRING OUR WOES AS A COUNTRY TO REST.
I think the arrogance of this mp is be too much. Is it the president who should tell you about coronavirus? What are the minister of health,his deputy ministers and Ghana health service there for? And haven't they been talking about it. And why mention religious leaders in this guy is bare face liar and arrogant
The reference of this guy as "JJ" by the media in recent times is becoming nauseating.
Peace fm please stop using JJ to refer to Jinapor.
