YEN.com.gh earlier reported that the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong has joined the campaign against stigmatisation of persons who have COVID-19 or have recovered from the virus.

Sharing his ordeal with Adom News, the lawmaker noted that COVID-19 was real and Ghanaians must not take things for granted.

“I have recovered now and not shy to talk about it because I am a testimony but the disease is so real and we don’t have to joke with it,” Mr. Agyapong urged.
