Okoe-Boye Forgives Fault Finding KIA-COVID-Testing Lady
Former Deputy Health Minister, Dr. Okoe-Boye, has forgiven the lady who made fallible claims about tests at the Kotoka International Airport a week ago.
According to him, his stance come after the lady, Ivy Ankra, a US-based Ghanaian, rendered an unqualified apology.
In a Facebook post, Dr. Okoe-Boye noted that people had advised him to either sue the lady or seek for personal apology.
But he noted that “As a person who follows Christ and believes in the Omnipotence of God, I immediately let go of ALL my reservations about a fellow human being once he or she says sorry. Remember there is none righteous, no, not even one; for he who claims infallibility knows not the Lord”.

The lady, however, in a recent video apologised for her statements noting that she has been educated that it is possible to test positive 24 hours after testing negative.

What I give back to my sister is this smile, knowing that as Public servants, we ought to keep listening, reflecting and most importantly smiling no matter how sweet or sour the comments are. This COVID-19 too shall pass sooner than…
