The Republic of Ghana’s Embassy, located close to Monrovia, has provided clarification on a false report that went viral, claiming that Ghana’s President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, voiced concerns about Liberia’s president making unapproved visits to his nation at the ECOWAS parliament.
President Nana Akufo-Addo reportedly voiced her displeasure with President Joseph Boakai’s actions, calling them improper and out of protocol, in a social media post.
The public in Liberia was advised to disregard a “piece of fake news or false statement ostensibly made to the ECOWAS Parliament by His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, President of the Republic of Ghana,” according to a statement released by the Ghanian Embassy close to Monrovia.
“The Mission unequivocally declares that the aforementioned statement was never made by Ghana’s President to the ECOWAS Parliament.”
Nonetheless, the Mission seizes the chance to reiterate that Ghana values its close ties to the Republic of Liberia’s government and that Liberians are always welcome in Ghana.
According to the Ghanaian Embassy, Ghana’s government is prepared to work with Liberia’s government to further the mutual development of the two countries.
