SHARE

Claim: TikTok user, menu. Tabor shared a video of President Akufo-Addo, implying that the president’s reaction in the video is his reaction to the December 7, 2024, election results. “See President Nana Addo’s reaction seeing the results,” the caption read.

Verdict: False


Explanation: The Ghana Fact-Checking Coalition’s verification through a Google reverse image search reveals that the video is an old video from May 2019, captured during a football match between Tottenham Hotspur and Ajax in the UEFA Champions League. The video is, therefore, in no way related to the elections.
