Video of vandalized police station shared on TV3 happened in Techiman South Police station not Lamashegu

Ghana Fact-checking Coalition
December 10, 2024
SHARE

Claim: An Instagram video shared on TV3 is alleging that the Lamashegu Police Station was vandalized by some youth in Tamale.

Source: TV3 (Instagram) (Archived).

Verdict: Misleading

Explanation: The same video was shared by Channel One TV on X , showing NDC youth storming the Techiman South Police Station, which served as a collation center. 

Upon comparing the footage from both posts, it was confirmed that the building shown in the video is located in Techiman South, not Lamashegu. The video shared by TV3 actually depicts the events in Techiman South, not the Lamashegu Police Station.
