Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has voiced serious concerns about the rise in false information that is making its way around the nation.
He urged Ghanaians to be watchful in the lead-up to the December general elections 2024 as the nation gets ready for them and to be wary of the spread of false information.
He emphasized how crucial it is to disregard such false information in order to preserve harmony and national unity.
Speaking to guests during the 2024 Eid celebrations in Accra’s Black Star Square, he emphasized the need to avoid supporting or spreading false information and advised against doing so.
He said “We are in an election year and in election years, there is a tendency for self-seeking people to exploit our differences of religion and ethnicity to foment division to promote narrow and parochial sectarian and political agendas.
“In an age of information and new media, which also offers people a wide degree of anonymity, we should be careful about the spread of misinformation and disinformation, especially when such misinformation and disinformation destroy the hard-earned reputation of people.”
