Mr. Alan Kyerematen, leader of the Movement for Change, has sent a message to the general public about a letter circulating on social media that claims he has been appointed by President John Mahama to lead the creation of a 24-hour economy initiative. Alan Kyerematen made it clear that such letter is fake.
According to a statement signed by Kwame Owusu Danso, Special Advisor on Communications to Alan Kyerematen, the letter is fake and intended to mislead the public. The statement, released on Friday, January 17, described the document as a fabrication meant to cause confusion.
The alleged letter claims that Mr. Kyerematen has been named Acting Director for the establishment of a 24-hour economy board and secretariat. It further states that the appointment reflects President Mahama’s commitment to inclusive governance, as outlined in the NDC’s 2024 manifesto.
Mr. Kyerematen’s office, however, has dismissed the letter entirely, calling it false and urging Ghanaians to ignore it.
“This blatant attempt to create confusion and misinformation will not be tolerated,” the statement said. “Please treat this fake appointment letter with the contempt it deserves.”
The statement also advised citizens to verify information from credible sources to avoid falling victim to false news.
Earlier, Mr. Kyerematen had met with President Mahama after his re-election and presented his Great Transformational Agenda document to him. However, his office emphasized that this meeting had no connection to the fake letter in circulation.
Citizens are encouraged to remain alert and avoid spreading unverified information. It is expected that John Mahama will announce his last set of ministers on Monday, 20th January, 2025.
