A police officer has received a lot of attention on social media, after posting a rap video which educates the public on the need to stay home during the lockdown.
The video titled 'Stay at home" started with the President’s call on the nation to have confidence as “these are not ordinary times”.

The rap which was mostly in the local language, Twi pleaded with individuals to protect themselves from the risk of being infected citing the overwhelming deaths in other countries.
Meanwhile, he called for a collective collaboration on the part of all frontline workers to combat the spread of coronavirus.
“It is a global warfare, let us not politicise it. Let’s support our leader Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo. We are in this together and together we will win,” he said.
This comes after there have been several reported assault from the police and military in the implementation of lockdown regulations.
However, the leadership of the Ghana Army has debunked all such claims stating that there has only been one of such cases where the officer involved has been withdrawn to the barracks for investigations.
