Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, Carlos Kingsley Ahenkorah, who is also Member of Parliament for Tema West Constituency, has been asked by Prez. Nana Akufo-Addo to resign or be fired.
The ultimatum was given to him after the MP granted interviews to several radio stations in Accra confirming he visited registration centers despite his COVID-19 positive status.
According to Mr. Ahenkorah, he was admitted at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital on Thursday but was discharged on Friday morning after his condition improved.
He also confirmed that he was diagnosed with the deadly disease on 23 June and was asked self-isolate but he decided to visit several registration centers because he was asymptomatic.
Majority of Ghanaians have descended on the MP on social media describing the his behaviour as irresponsible and undermining the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
It is expected that Mr Ahenkorah will likely resign in the coming days.
