Deputy Spokesperson for John Dramani Mahama’s campaign, Beatrice Annan, has sited for misleading the public with information regarding the Kintampo Waterfalls in the Bono East Region.

The private legal practitioner, posted a video of a muddy waterfall, allegedly filmed in 2024, and attributed the situation to the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).

However, fact-checking platform Dubawa has debunked her claims, revealing the information she shared on social media was inaccurate.

Dubawa's investigation confirmed that the video was actually recorded in 2023, not in 2024, as Annan suggested, making her post misleading.

“Misleading. DUBAWA’s research revealed that the video of the muddied waterfall was that of the Kintampo waterfall. It was filmed in 2023, not 2024. Anas Sabit Anas, a journalist in the Brong Ahafo region where the waterfall is located, told DUBAWA that the water is clean and clear but occasionally muddied when torrential rains occur.”
