President Nana Akufo-Addo has ordered the closure of all schools and universities in Ghana as his administration moves to stem the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

The president asked school authorities to ensure that these classes are conducted in hygienic conditions with appropriate “social distancing” between attendees.
