President Nana Akufo-Addo began his quarantine on Saturday and will be working from the presidential villa in Accra.

ACCRA – Ghana's president has gone into self-isolation for two weeks as a precautionary measure despite testing negative for coronavirus, the government said, after one of his contacts was confirmed to have the illness.
