Cnergy Global Holdings and Conferences, organisers of the First Global PPP Conference, says the international conference will come off despite the Ebola Virus scare that has forced government to place a temporary three- month ban on international conferences as part of measures to contain the spread of the virus into the country.
A Director of Cnergy Global Holdings, Michael Cobblah argues that the decision to push ahead with the conference is as a result of the fact that there are no participants coming from Ebola-affected countries within the sub-region.
Government has assured that a number of measures have been put in place at the country’s entry points to screen all other participants from other parts of the world.
On Thursday, the Government of Ghana committed GHȼ6 million to combat the threat posed by the Ebola-Virus
The First Global PPP Conference comes off at the Movenpick Ambassador Hotel, Accra, from August 18-21, 2014.
