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."

PEACEFMONLINE don't you have stories to publish to spare us this> Ahh
This guys is becoming very vocal of late. I hope he is not being groomed as Mahama's vice. Tsoo.
There is a capable vice president and together with technology use, no decision requires the physical presence of the president to take decisions. If you don't have anything to say during such programmes,just let it pass.
How power corrupts and makes one arrogant. You think JJ is not fit to advise the president? Hmmm... ARROGANCE!!! What's wrong with JJ advising the president to stay put and lead a crusade against this Corona virus? Don't we know that that would send a signal that when it comes to human lives, we give it the most attention? Ghanaians, open your eyes and stop being blinded by NPP political lenses.
Peacefmonline, your elevator certainly does not go to the top. Such sensational and no***barred word*** headlines are a turnoff. Is it desperation or 1+1 doesn’t compute for you. Please get more serious. Don’t lay down for this gyoker to disturb our ears. Sooner than later your readership will turn south if you keep on like this..
Ed3n na eba wo so yi? This is the most gyimi submission I have read this year. Why must the President come and educate us on the virus. Wo ye den? Why can't you do it for your constituents? You seem to be fast pacing away from the otu kunors and sammy gyamfis of your stock. Charlie grow up na gyae gyimi no.
CHECK JINAPOR VERY WELL, THERE IS ALWAYS ALCOHOLIC SUBSTANCES IN HIS SYSTEMS
Why would he not be arrogant when he has had free money to buy numerous properties at East Legon. The fire will soon get to him.
Pls check your title...it is misleading. The article talks about Abu Jinapor and not JJ
Confused as usual. Is the President a doctor or corona virus expert. Talk as an MP and not one of the boys always seen hanging around you.
