He says he\u2019s fine and doesn\u2019t have COVID but only needed rest and his usual medication\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the President of Ghana in his eleventh address to the country confirmed that the Health Minister had tested for the deadly virus and had been admitted at the University of Ghana Hospital in Accra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Afia Pokuaa after the President\u2019s speech received backlash from especially users of various social media platforms in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They tagged her a liar for the information she put out concerning the Minister\u2019s condition because her claims were not supported by enough evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But reacting to the insults on the social media on her radio show, \u2018Egyaso Gyaso\u201d, the lady known popularly as Vim Lady said people backlashing her should use their GHC 2 worth of data to buy facemask to protect themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to her \u201cDon\u2019t make the issue about me. Vim Lady is not a kid. My parents didn\u2019t give birth to me two days ago. I\u2019ve been in the media for several years and I understand the ethics of the profession. I also know the law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPeople are saying Afia Pokuaa has lied so Afia Pokuaa should come and apologise. Apologise for what? I reported what I was told? Why is everybody especially NDC, why are you making it look if Minister has COVID it will give you automatic 1 million votes and why will NPP cover up if the Minister has tested positive. If the Minister has or doesn\u2019t have how will it affect your status?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThink about yourself. President now says it\u2019s compulsory to wear facemask so are you having the facemask? That\u2019s what you should concern yourself with. This whole things that has been politicized and they are blaming Afia Pokuaa for bringing problems is because of voters register. If you\u2019ve a problem with the voters register take me out because I\u2019ve no stake in the voters register. I\u2019ve said that I won\u2019t even go and register for the card like I did with the NIA card because I don\u2019t have that time and I won\u2019t risk my life that COVID-19 is in Ghana and I will join queues to register for a voters ID car.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source:\u00a0MyNewsGh.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadcast Journalist with the Despite Group, Afia Pokuaa widely known as Vim Lady has said that the insult on her person especially by members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is a result of their push to prevent the compilation of the new voters\u2019 register.
