Nana Ofori Owusu, National Chairman of the Progressive People's Party (PPP), has urged Ghanaians to wash their nose masks after wearing them.

The wearing of nose or face masks has become mandatory and failure to put it on could result in the culprit fined or face a 10-year or minimum jail term.

All Ghanaians are obliged to wear the masks to avoid the spread of the coronavirus.

However, Nana Ofori Owusu has taken notice of a certain problematic trend which needs to be addressed.

Making his submissions on ''Kokrokoo'' on Peace FM, the PPP National Chairman expressed distaste over the unhygienic ways of keeping the nose masks stating some Ghanaians wear their mask for days without washing it.

He is therefore afraid such attitude may lead to the spread of people needlessly contracting infections.

''The one or two people who are wearing the nose masks, you'll see the nose masks are very dirty . . .  make sure you wash the nose masks everyday to be neat for your own health,” he charged.
