The politicization of the coronavirus pandemic in Ghana seems to be continuing, with former President John Mahama’s darling girl and aide, Joyce Bawah Mogtari, questioning the sincerity of the recoveries figure put out by Ghana Health Service (GHS).
GHS last night, May 15, gave an update on the coronavirus situation in Ghana, reporting that the country has recorded 28 deaths, 1460 recoveries and 5,638 confirmed cases.
Joyce Bawah Mogtari a deputy minister in the Mahama administration whose husband was the Chief Executve Officer of FDA under the same admnistration took to her Twitter handle to sarcastically question the recoveries figures, calling for proof of the figures.
“How the hell did 790 more people recover overnight!!” she exclaimed in her tweet.
“We need to put these numbers to strict proof!!” she says as if she was expecting infected people to die.
Unfortunately when the figures for confirmed cases were rising she had no queries for that.
She had in a separate tweet sort to render Ghana’s Covid-19 tests figures insignificant, saying “numbers don’t mean anything if you don’t put them in proper context.”
