Government has announced the extension of its free water policy to consumers from October 1to December 31, 2020.
This extension is to enable Ghanaians continue with the protocols especially the washing of hands under running water, to help in the fight of Covid 19 pandemic.
In a statement copied to Plan B FM, the ministry of sanitation and water resources, they appealed to consumers to use water cautiously in the observance of the protocols
The ministry further wishes to urge all landlords and tanker services providers to refrain from charging or selling water to consumers as Government is paying for the water.
President Akufo-Addo during an earlier address to the nation on measure taken against the spread of coronavirus, announced the reduction of electricity tariffs by half and provision of potable water for free to all Ghanaians for the months of August, September and October to make up for lost income as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The latest announcement will come as relief to Ghanaians especially persons who have had their businesses affected by the outbreak of the pandemic.
