The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration has cautioned the public against accepting friend requests in the name of the sector Minister, Ms Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey.
According to the Ministry in a public notice on Wednesday February 5, some dubious persons were using Instagram accounts bearing the name of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration to dupe and extort money from unsuspecting members of the public, both in Ghana and abroad.
“For the avoidance of doubt Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey (MP), is not on any social media platform and therefore has no Instagram Account. The public is therefore cautioned not to accept requests on any social media platform in the name of the Honourable Minister and to resist attempts by miscreants who seek to dupe them by soliciting funds in her name,” the notice said.
