President Mahama advocates stakeholder forum on TikTok regulation

However, the President said the government could choose to allow unrestricted free expression without police action, but questioned whether that was what Ghanaians wanted.

PRESIDENT John Dramani Mahama has called for a stakeholders forum to decide how Ghana should regulate TikTok and other new media platforms which have become channels for misinformation, disinformation and insults.

He said that while Ghanaians cherished free expression, it should not be mistaken for absolute licence, citing an example that threatening the US President would attract swift action.
