And for her, she believes the situation can be resolved if government involved traditional rulers in the fight against the pandemic.

According to Lydia Forson in a tweet, people obey directives from traditional rulers siting how they adhered strictly to the ban on noise making among others.

Her post read;

From the comments I believe that traditional rulers should be educated and empowered even more to help reach their people on #COVID2019 

There’s a respect and trust people give to traditional rulers that politicians don’t get. ?We’ve all witnessed the numerous occasions where chiefs have imposed a ban on noise making or curfew and people who don’t even believe in these customs comply.

It’s interesting that we’ve not used them more.

When I say reach people in a language they understand, I don’t always mean literally.
If they’re willing to stay home because a chief is dead, they can because they’ve been told not to.

Just my thoughts.

Lydia Forson who is also a writer and producer, started her acting career with a cameo role in Hotel St. James in 2005.

The winner of African Movie Academy Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role has starred in movies such as Scorned, A Sting in a Tale, Phone Swap, Masquerades, Sidechic Gang, Keteke among others.
