The acting General Secretary of the Convention People’s Party (CPP), James Kwabena Bomfeh says the communication and education on the covid-19 pandemic should be manned by health professionals not politicians.
Kwabena Bomfeh, popularly known as Kabila, targeted the Ministry of Information which has spearheaded the communication on the pandemic, in his criticism.
The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) had earlier raised concerns that the Akufo-Addo government was handling the pandemic situation to suit its partisan interests. The NDC criticized the Information Ministry for misconstruing data collected on the virulent disease, to water down the severity of the outbreak.

Making his submission on the matter on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo', Kabila vehemently warned against the political dimensions creeping into discussions on the issue.
He added that, the health Professionals wield knowledge in dealing with pandemics and therefore are the best people to spearhead public education on the disease, instead of the Information ministry.
"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.
