A MoMo scammer called me today claiming he had mistakenly sent GHS 9 million to my account 😂😭
He then asked me to:
1.Check my account
2.Switch off my phone so he could “withdraw” the money
A few moments later, I received a prompt to authorise GHS 438. I dismissed it immediately.
The confidence these scammers have is unreal.
I really hope the new SIM re-registration helps tackle MoMo fraud in Ghana.
Love this ❤️
On the Holy Saturday of Easter, whiles in Kwahu where for almost two decades I have consecutively visited during the sacred period of Easter, I called on the President of the Republic, H. E. John Dramani Mahama who is also in Kwahu. ~ Nana Addo D

My colleague, @hafiztijani121 filed a report about this popular liquid substance sold on the market. It’s called, Sukurdai.
This is how is works when you take it.
20 years ago, I was studying abroad at the @UnivofGh. Like spaceflight, it was a positive, life-changing, perspective-deepening experience. Seeing the beauty of Ghana from space reminds me of the amazing people I met there and how in exploring the world, we learn about ourselves.
