The directive on Ghana’s border closure still stands despite the implementation of the second phase of easing of the COVID-19 restrictions imposed on the country.
On Sunday, July 26, while delivering his 14th address to the nation, the President, Nana Akufo-Addo stated that “our borders, by air, land and sea, remain closed until further notice for human traffic”.
Even though the entry points are to remain shut, evacuation of stranded Ghanaians in various countries will continue through special arrangements and by observing the stipulated rules of repatriation to prevent the import of the virus into the country.
“However, given that there are Ghana residents stranded abroad, special dispensation will continue to be given for the evacuation of our nationals and residents back to Ghana, where they will be subjected to the mandatory quarantine and safety protocols,” said Akufo-Addo.
