Government Spokesperson Felix Kwakye Ofosu has assured Ghanaians, particularly media practitioners, that the government has no intention of restricting freedom of expression, especially in the digital space.
Speaking at the launch of the 29th Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) Media Awards in Accra on Thursday, October 9, Mr. Kwakye Ofosu reiterated the administration’s commitment to media freedom, while also calling for responsible use of social media.
“Let me assure you that the government does not intend to curb freedoms. President Mahama, as you know him, is one person who supports the expression of free speech. He is exceptionally tolerant and he is open to criticism,” he stated.
