Deputy Information Minister, Pius Enam Hadzide has patted the back of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo for rolling out a three-month free water policy for Ghanaians.
According to him, this policy clearly shows that President Akufo-Addo feels the pains of Ghanaians.
By way of sympathizing with them, he declared the absorption of water bills from March to June, to lessen their burden.
"We have a president who is sympathetic and thinks about his people. It is for this reason that he has put measures in place so that in this difficult time, what government can do to support people to bring respite as well as free them from hardship within the limitations," he told Afia Pokua on Okay FM.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in his fifth address to the nation Sunday [April 5, 2020] instructed all water tankers, publicly and privately owned to ensure that there is constant water supply to all vulnerable communities.
He noted that "the Ghana Water Company Ltd and the Electricity Company of Ghana have been directed to ensure the stable supply of water and electricity during this period. In addition, there will be no disconnection of supply."

You u don't appreciate go to where u want
@Agatha you be too much! That story of the brutal killing of a civilian has been completely forgotten by everybody. It could have been any Ghanaian within the shores of Ghana. Unfortunately, it just happens to be someone who was going about what he knows how to do every day in order to feed, in Ashaiman! And what was the punishment for the officer? Withdraw him from the operation! How slickening is that! Why are people making political capital out of a situation that is not normal? When ,in living memory, has Ghana ever faced such a situation? So unprecedent times demand unprecedented measures quite out of character of every leader/dealer. So it is not the benevolence of NADAA or that he is sympathetic: it is the times which demands he uses our own resources to alleviate the sufferings of those who in the first place don't need to be in this position! So all political vultures and sloganeers should ***barred word***!
He is showing sympathy to who? Has he not been president for 3years? Where was the sympathy until COVID 19 showed up? What else could he have done when he has compulsorily locked people down in their rooms, preventing them from going about their normal lives. All over the world this disease has made every country do virtually same thing, so what sympathy are you talking about. This is pandemic and he has no option than to help the vulnerable. This has nothing to do with sympathy. Even my SHS son as school prefect can do this. You ask people to wash their hands so they need water, you say people should indoors so they need light to power their tv etc to entertain themselves, so this has nothing to do with his sympathy. If you want to know his real character, it when he consoles BORIS JOHNSON who is in ICU in UK and neglect someone that his soldiers shot dead in ASHIAMAN. Tell me someone like this is sympathetic. His intent is to ride on this pandemic to do political campaign with freebies.
Praise singer. is the money coming from his pocket.
