Actress Lydia Forson says President Akufo-Addo’s lockdown directive has loopholes and is very confusing.
She said she appreciates the efforts of the government to contain the spread of the deadly Coronavirus but the directive is not really clear.
She took to Twitter and wrote: “While I appreciate the efforts the government is putting in to control this pandemic; I believe this #lockdown was not fully thought through. So many grey areas, loopholes, misinformation, and confusion. Like some people have already run away to other regions,”

Like some people have already run away to other regions 😩
