Ghanaian chartered accountant and Minister for National Security, Albert Kan Dapaah has reacted to the trending video of himself in a video conversation with his alleged sidechick.
In the video making waves on social media, the minister is heard discussing trivial issues like what he was wearing at that moment and even the brand of the pyjamas he was wearing.
“Are you going to miss me when you are on the flight,” the lady asked him. “Of course I am, of course, of course,” the minister responded.
The lady then requested to see what the minister was wearing in the night video call.
“I am in a pajamas,” he told the lady.
Reacting to the video, Kan Dapaah has said the video is part of a doctored series of conversations that seeks to lure people who have materials that can compromise high profiled personalities in the country.
The statement urged Ghanaian’s to disregard the video going viral on social media and treat it with the contempt it deserves.

My attention has been drawn to a video circulating on social media purported to be a recorded conversation of myself and a friend.
The said conversation is first of all, part of a broader series of conversations in an effort to uncover persons behind attempts to gather material which could be used to compromise key personalities. Security sector persons routinely employ various methods including baits to uncover cells. This conversation is one such effort.
Secondly, the recording of this conversation and a second telephone conversation of a different subject have been doctored to achieve a false impression of untoward conduct by myself.
Thankfully, an operation related to this matter was successful in retrieving the original and the edited versions of some of the materials. Persons associated with it are subjects of an ongoing investigation known to the relevant security hierarchy.
I assure the Ghanaian public that nothing compromising, untoward or undermining has been occasioned.
Signed:
Albert Kan Dapaah
