The Minister of Communications, Digital Technology, and Innovations-designate, Sam George, has stated that his nomination has clearly caused significant distress to the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP).
He accused the NPP of resorting to deception, fabricating lies, and distributing fake photos to mislead the public after failing to block his approval in Parliament.
His comments come in response to a doctored picture that went viral on social media, falsely depicting him watching pornographic material.
During the parliamentary debate on the Appointments Committee's report on the vetting of ministerial nominees, on February 4, 2025, the Member of Parliament for Damongo referenced the image and cautioned Sam George to be mindful of the content he views, particularly when serious business is ongoing in Parliament.
