10 Guinean nationals who sneaked into Tamale have tested positive for coronavirus.
The 10 were arrested by security officials after they travelled through Burkina Faso and Togo into Ghana, despite the closure of the country’s borders.
Following their arrest, they were put under mandatory quarantine and later tested for the virus which has so far claimed over 20, 000 lives around the world.
“As of 29th March 2020, at 10:30 hrs, 11 new cases of COVID-19 have been confirmed in Ghana. Ten (10) of the new cases were among persons who were under mandatory quarantine in Tamale under the direction of the Regional Security Committee of the Northern Region,” a statement issued by the Ghana Health Service said.
It added: “The 10 cases were Guinean residents who travelled through Burkina Faso and Togo to Ghana and were picked following intelligence report. The eleventh case was recorded in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region”.
Ghana’s total cases now stand at 152 with five deaths and two recoveries.
