Ghanaian media personality Afia Pokua, popularly known as Vim Lady, has criticised the Minister of Foreign Affairs over the recent closure of Ghana's Embassy in Washington, D C, citing alleged corrupt practices.
According to Afia Pokua, the minister acted wrongly by shutting down the embassy without conducting proper investigations to substantiate his corruption claims.
Speaking on her Gyaso Gyaso show on Okay FM on June 9, 2025, she argued that there was no corruption at the embassy.
Rather, the only issue identified by a committee from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was a conflict of interest, which, in her view, did not justify the closure or the public embarrassment it brought.
