Madagascar Is No Match For Us . . . Their COVID-19 'Cure’ Is Ranked 51st In Ghana - Ghanaian Herbalists
The Ghana Federation of Traditional Medicine Practitioners' Associations (GHAFTRAM) has blamed the Ministry of Health for Ghana not having a herbal 'cure' for COVID-19.
General Secretary of GHAFTRAM, Nana Kwadwo Obiri said the Ministry refused to give the necessary attention to numerous samples of herbal medicines presented to them; a situation he described as 'very sad'.
Nana Kwadwo Obiri who was speaking in an interview on Neat FM's 'Me Man Nti' program bemoaned the fact that Ghana is collaborating with Madagascar to bring in a herbal 'cure' for coronavirus.
According to him, when it comes to herbal drugs used in treating malaria or similar illness, the 'cure' manufactured by Madagascar is ranked 51 in Ghana.
"Then we heard the country was considering going for Madagascar herbal medicine and that was very unfortunate. Ghana Health Service has never engaged us and to top it up, we heard they were going for Madagascar's 'cure'; we are really sad because when it comes to herbal medicines, Madagascar is nowhere close to us. We are the leaders in Africa and the medicine they are using is ranked 51 in our list of medicines..." he said.
