Coronavirus not for political gain

File photo File photo

A global pandemic, setback, Coronavirus has the world under siege.

Grandparents are at its mercy, children yearn for protection, mothers are wary and fathers are restless. Collectively we haunt for solution; the norm!

Could there be ulterior motives in the plight to save the day?

I need recognition and attention, I will deliberately help people, take a picture and share to the world. Affairs of the heart, "the camera regime."

Ghanaians shouldn't be victims of short memory.

Just yesterday, the whole nation assembled to seek the face of God for mercy.

Stakeholders are investing altimum efforts to salvage the situation.
Luadable!

Government puts in strategic measures including the provision of free water to Ghanaians for the next three months and social media is thrown into a political arena. The opposition is ridiculed severely; the insults, the trolls....

They rebut with their contributions and make reference to the past; Ebola.
The country is reduced to politics. A clear picture of our state of mind.

Shameful!

I keep wondering the attitude of Ghanaians if government declares free electricity or the opposition invests significantly towards this fight.
Another chaos beckons Ghana.

We are too political and can't even draw lines between national affairs and political issues.

We have come too far as a country to exhibit this mediocrity.

We are in this together. I am not your enemy for according the government or opposition some credit neither am I a nation wrecker for constructively criticizing government.

Let's desist from lofty talks and unhealthy arguments.

To use my help as a subterfuge for political gains...disheartening.

Rise above partisan politics Ghanaians. Be objective.
Embrace politics after covid-19.
