Viral video of Akufo Addo reacting to election result, old and unrelated

Ghana Fact-checking Coalition
December 9, 2024

SHARE

Claim: TikTok user, menu. tabor shared a video of President Akufo-Addo, implying that his reaction in the video is his response to the December 7, 2024, election results. “See President Nana Addo’s reaction seeing the results” the caption read. 

Source: menu.tabor archived here (on TikTok)/ video

Verdict: False

Explanation: The Ghana Fact-Checking Coalition’s verification through a Google reverse image search reveals that the video is an old video from May 2019, captured during a football match between Tottenham Hotspur and Ajax in the UEFA Champions League. The video is, therefore, in no way related to the elections.
