Former Finance Minister Ken Ofori-Atta Makes Public Appearances Amid False Health Rumours: “The Wicked Lies Must Stop”
Former Minister of Finance Ken Ofori-Atta has recently made several public appearances, dispelling rumors about his health.
These appearances come in the wake of false reports suggesting he was gravely ill.
Ofori-Atta attended the Induction Service of the new Presiding Bishop of the Methodist Church of Ghana, Most Rev. Prof. J. Kwabena Asamoah-Gyadu, at the Wesley Cathedral in Accra on October 12, 2024.
Clad in vibrant kente cloth, he was also present at the 25th Anniversary Royal Grand Durbar of Okyenhene Osagyefuo Amoatia Ofori Panin.
Supporters of the government and the New Patriotic Party quickly shared photos of the former finance minister, criticizing the malicious health rumors.
Kow Essuman, the president’s lawyer, described the rumors as “wicked lies.” Koku Anyidoho also shared videos of Ofori-Atta in public, further debunking the false claims.
After a turbulent tenure as finance minister, Ofori-Atta now serves as President Akufo-Addo’s senior economic advisor.
He was removed from his position as finance minister on February 14, 2024, following over a year of controversy and protests.
Despite this, Palgrave Boakye Danquah, the government spokesperson on governance, emphasized that Ofori-Atta’s extensive experience makes him a valuable asset to the government and the country.
Ofori-Atta’s recent public appearances have reassured many about his well-being, putting an end to the unfounded rumors about his health.
