According to him, Sir John’s family were to blame since they organized the funeral and the ruling party was just invited. He said though measures were put in place to observe the COVID-19 protocols, the huge number of mourners at the funeral was “unfortunate”. Freddie Blay’s comments follow condemnation from OccupyGhana and the Ghana Medical Association (GMA) following the governing party’s total disregard for COVID protocols at the funeral. “The GMA condemns such activities that violate our protocols and has the tendency to reverse all gains made in our fight against COVID-19. It was not a funeral that was officially organised by the government or the party.
