Joyce Bawa Mogtari has dismissed reports that she has contracted COVID-19.
According to the Special Aide of former President John Mahama, such reports are being circulated by members of the governing New Patriotic Party.
“It’s a lovely Wednesday morning, and there’s still some calm and beautiful air blowing around, thanks to the refreshing and ceiling-shattering news from my boss, John Dramani Mahama.
“As for the NPP propaganda all over that I, Joyce Bawah Mogtari, have tested positive for COVID-19 and in isolation, PLEASE IGNORE it.
“As someone who has been fighting the stigmatization of recovered persons, I will be the first to announce my status and help in education and advocacy to reduce the stigma,” she said in a statement.
Some government officials including Senior Minister Yaw Osafo-Marfo have contracted the virus. Deputy Trade Minister Carlos Ahenkorah resigned from his post after admitting he monitored the ongoing registration exercise despite his positive status. Last week, CEO of the Forestry Commission Sir John died of the virus.
