He added; “We have also released a cheque of GH¢2.5 million to National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) to embark on awareness creation, education and sensitization programs on COVID-19. We are also giving GH¢10 million to the private sector medical facility at Ga East Municipal Hospital.”

The Chairperson of the Fund, Lady Chief Justice (Rtd) Sophia Akuffo had earlier disclosed an amount of GH¢50 million was accrued in donations made by institutions and individuals.

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in a broadcast to the nation on March 27, 2020, announced the creation of a COVID-19 Fund with three months of his salary as a seed fund support.

According to him, the fund will serve as a support system for the well-being of individuals who will be adversely affected by the novel Coronavirus pandemic.
