The leader of the opposition, who is still contesting before the Supreme Court, the results of the presidential election in Ghana was vaccinated this Tuesday against COVID-19 at the police hospital in Accra.

Speaking to the press after being vaccinated, Mr Mahama said the only way the country can beat the virus is to vaccinate everyone.

“I believe that all Ghanaians should avail themselves for the vaccines and indeed in Africa, we should be less hesitant about taking vaccines because all of us took vaccines when we were growing up, and it is due to these vaccines that today our children do not get all kinds of diseases like polio and smallpox among others. ”, He confided.

“So vaccines are useful in preserving our health and so Ghanaians should disregard all these rumours,” he said while adding that he has agreed to take the vaccine publicly, to assure everyone that there is nothing to fear.

The Head of State Nana Akufo-Addo and his wife, Rebecca Akufo-Addo were the first to receive their vaccinations yesterday at the 37 military hospital in Accra.

As a reminder, the neighboring country of Togo was the first African nation to benefit from the COVAX initiative by receiving 600,000 doses of Astrazeneca vaccine last week.
