Three Ghanaians living in New York have succumbed to Covid 19. The Information Officer at the Consular office of the Ghanian Embassy in New York, Kofi Ameyaw, confirmed this during a radio interview in Ghana.

He said the deceased were two women and a man who was also a pastor in New York.

One of the women, a Muslim, Mr Ameyaw noted has been buried in accordance with Islamic customs.

He indicated that, education about the deadly coronavirus has been intensified in the Ghanaian community to avert such unfortunate deaths.

This, Mr Ameyaw said is because five of the states where the virus is prevalent have a lot of Ghanaians living there. “Many Ghanaians are frontline health workers in states like New York so we have urged them to take their safety very serious,” he added.
