The Northern Regional Minister Salifu Saeed says the young lady sneaked out of the quarantine centre at night.

The situation led to the Northern Regional Minister put a ban on prostitution in Tamale and its environs.

Even though prostitution is illegal in Ghana Mr Saeed says this will help to curb the spread of COVID-19 because social distancing is key.

Mr Saeed said the police are doing everything possible to arrest the lady as they believe she is a threat to the general public.

Information Minister, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah on March 29 had announced that the Guinean patients would be repatriated but there seems to be a change of plan.
