Ghana’s Information Minister, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah has urged the general public to be wary of fake social media pages claiming to be him and engaging in fraudulent activities.

The minister said he has notified security agencies to investigate and apprehend such persons.

In a Facebook post, Oppong Nkrumah suggested that such fake accounts were defrauding unsuspecting Ghanaians under the pretext of securing them different opportunities.

“Please note that I do not solicit for nor provide any protocol opportunities to people either in person or via social media,” he said.

He therefore urged Ghanaians to ignore any such accounts on social media.
