CPP Acting General Secretary, James Kwabena Bomfeh says the Ministry of Information should leave communication and education on the novel Coronavirus to health Professionals.

According to James Kwabena Bomfeh, popularly called Kabila, the health Professionals wield knowledge in dealing with pandemics and therefore are the best people to spearhead public education on the disease.

Kabila made this solemn appeal on 'Kokrokoo' on Peace FM.

Making his submissions on the COVID-19 and matters arising, Kabila vehemently warned against the political dimensions creeping into discussions on the issue.

"If you say the experts should be at the forefront of the communication, let the experts be at the forefront . . . Leave the explanations to the science experts because even though this is a novel pandemic, the truth of the matter is that they have knowledge and experience to deal with pandemics. So, they can better relate to the issues arising from this thing than any of us," he pleaded.
