THREE VULNER-

School and the Senior

These special institutions,
apart from having their premises
disinfected, were also presented
with 10 Veronica
buckets, sanitisers, and hand
cleaning tissues among other
items.
Madam Emma Akyea
Boakye, the Communications
Director of Zoomlion, who led
the team for the exercise, said
the vunerable in spciety deserves
better.
She said apart from the
special schools and the judicial
service, the exercise
would be extended to all
public tertiary educational
and other institutions
across the country.
"This is part of the efforts
to ensure no more
Ghanaians contract and die
from the coronavirus,".
Madam Mahela Narh,
the headmistress of the
School for the Blind and
Mr Frederick Tetteh, the
head of the Dzowulu Special
School, in their separate
interviews,

Judicial service
At the Judicial Service,
the Law Court Complex,
which houses 44 courtrooms,
the Ghana School of
Law, the Supreme Court and
the residence of the Chief
Justice were disinfected.
The coordinator of the
project, Lola Asiseh Ashitey,
said the disinfection exercise
at the institutions was being
done at no cost to them.
The waste management
giant has been collaborating
with the government to ensure
public spaces such as
markets and offices are disinfected
to protect the public
against the coronavirus.
Madam Lola, in her interaction
with the media, said,
"the disinfection exercise is
not meant to kill cocroaches
or other animals. So if we
disinfect, don't expect to see
these animals die but our job is
to make sure we kill all germs
such as bacteria and viruses so
that people are not exposed to
the Coronavirus".
Judicial Service Secretary,
Cynthia Pamela Akotoaa Addo,
while thanking Zoomlion for
the exercise, reiterated that the
disinfection exercise was being
done at no cost to the judicial
service.
