The “restricted document” is titled “Deployment strategy for lockdown of Accra, Tema, Kumasi and Obuasi“

The government has been under pressure to announce a lockdown at every news of an increase in infections. Ghana has so far recorded 136 cases of the deadly virus as of March 27, 2020 with the Upper West region recording its first case of the virus.
