The Northern Regional Chairman of the NPP, Baantima Adam Samba has donated several hundreds of hand sanitizers to the Ghana Ambulance Services, the Police, the Prison Services, the Media, the Ghana Fire Services and street beggars in Tamale.

Hand sanitizers have become an essential commodity in Ghana in the wake of the Covid-19 Pandemic.
It has become scarce in some places and expensive as well in recent times to procure within the local communities.

The various recipients of the hand sanitizers thanked the Northern Regional Chairman of the NPP for the gesture adding that his donation was the first to be received since the outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic.

During the donation to the beggars in Tamale it was realised that some of them were unaware of the Covid-19 Pandemic and were seeing hand sanitizers for the first time.

Speaking to the Voiceless Media after the donation, Chairman Samba explained that the donation was part of a series of support he was going to give in the Northern Region as part of his contribution to sensitize and educate the people about the Pandemic.

On his part, the Northern Regional Communications Director of the NPP, Mr Salifu Sule hinted that the Regional Communications wing of the NPP was to deliberately embark on a covid-19 pandemic education to complement the effort of the relevant stakeholders.

It must be explained that at the time of going to press, 10 people comprising of 8 Guineans and 2 Burkinabes were confirmed covid-19 positive in Tamale.
