According to the Assembly, the measures are to help protect the residents from contracting or passing on the coronavirus (COVID-19) which has since its outbreak in the country affected 1,279 people with 134 recoveries, and 10 deaths.

The Municipal Chief Executive, Mr. Michael Mensah, who revealed this in an interview said the measures to contain the spread of the coronavirus have become so critical that the Assembly will not compromise on the safety of its residents.

The MCE said we may come out to make an announcement that if you don’t put on a nose mask, you will not be allowed to sell or buy in the market.

At the time of filing this report, the Municipal Security Council (MUSEC) was meeting to review all the security measures they have put in place to ensure the safety of residents of Kasoa.
