Deputy Minister for Trade and Industry, who also doubles as the Member of Parliament for Tema West, Hon. Carlos Ahenkorah, has asked the Minority to "disclose their running-mate" and "stop the unnecessary coronavirus politicking".
According to him, with barely 10 months into the general elections, the National Democratic Congress has practically refused to outdoor the party's running mate, but found time to engage in propaganda over the global eopidemic.
"In other countries, both the opposition and the ruling government have come together to fight the virus, but here we are in this country doing the usual politicking.
"They should concentrate on finding a running mate than doing politics with the global coronavirus epidemic," the NPP MP said on Okay FM’s Ade Akye Abia program.
Last week, the NDC MP for Kumbungu, Hon Ras Mubarak, demanded information on whether President Akufo-Addo upon his return from the European tour, will be quarantined following cases of the spread of the Coronavirus disease in some of the countries the president has visited.
Hon Ras Mubarak asked the question in Parliament after the Majority Leader Hon Osei Kyei Mensah Bonsu had presented to Members, Business statement of Parliament for this week.
According to the Kumbungu MP, the President of Mongolia has been quarantined for 14 days after a trip outside the country.
Sudan, Angola, Tanzania, Ghana, and Kenya have been identified as having a moderate importation risk, but with varying levels of health system preparedness to handle an outbreak.
Many of these countries are among the 13 African nations with a high volume of travel to and from China, which the World Health Organisation (WHO) has prioritized to receive support for added measures like improved airport screening.
The World Health Organisation has identified Ghana and 12 other African countries as high-risk countries for the novel coronavirus.

I rest my case as the right thinking Ghanaians have said it all in this comment section. Some NPPs not thinking right. NDC can choose the running mate a day before election, what is your own?
The reason why I always say GHANA won’t develop is , if Tema of all places could choose this guy, Titus Glover as their MP then let’s forget. There is even on Kofi Brako I still don’t know if he is still parliamentarian. Eiii 3y3 as3moo
I thought this guy is in power and Mahama is in opposition. Please, we are still exporting extractive materials so what are you doing about it?
You are truly infested with coronavirus hence your childish talk, no one in npp has brains
Is this fuull assigned the duty to push ndc for their running mate? I have been listening to him of late, and it looks as if that is his ministerial assignment. Instead of working hard to ensure better lives for Ghanaians they continue to engage in nun sense. Even if the ndc do not have a running mate a week before president mahama files for his nomination how does it become npp's problem. I suspect their occult owusu bempah wants the name so that he can consult his shrine against that person, but because no name has been mentioned their occult time deadline is up, hence their frustration.
So putting pressure on the government to do things right in relation to the Corona virus is politics. Wait till people in your house get infected with the virus....... that is when you will see your folly.
What a joke that has mahama running mate got to do with the management of de country tell ur boss to lead the country well and stop beating about de boudoir because the jokes are becoming too many but you guys are not comedian
MASTER DON'T YOU HAVE ANY BETTER THINGS TO TALK ABOUT? IS THE NAMING OF HIS RUNNING MATE GOING TO SOLVE NUMEROUS JOB LOSS?, HARDSHIP ETC?
