A video of a security man in Ghana improperly handling tissue meant for the public in the midst of the dreaded coronavirus has gone viral.

In the video, a man, who appeared elderly, was seen using saliva to sort out the tissue before packing them into an improvised tissue holder.

The video has since caused outrage on Facebook and other social media platforms with unsavory words that cannot be repeated.

Many users urged the public to take along with them hand sanitisers to be safe instead of depending on tissues and other items provided for public use.
