The Office of the Minister for Education and Member of Parliament for Tamale South, Haruna Iddrisu, has dismissed as false a set of campaign-style posters circulating online suggesting he plans to contest the flagbearership of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
In a statement signed by the Minister’s Secretary, Hashmin Mohammed, the Office said it had noted the materials spreading across social media and described them as deceptive and unauthorised.
“The Office wishes to state unequivocally that these posters did not originate from Hon. Haruna Iddrisu or his office,” the statement said, urging the public to ignore the claims and treat them with “the utmost contempt they deserve.”
The statement stressed that neither Haruna Iddrisu nor his official team had any hand in producing or distributing the posters.
According to the Office, the Tamale South MP remains fully committed to his duties as Minister for Education and as a legislator and is not pursuing any internal party leadership campaign at this time.
Mr Iddrisu is currently in Lusaka, Zambia, accompanying President John Dramani Mahama on official engagements. While in Lusaka, he is said to be working with the President to advance the government’s Reset Ghana agenda, with a special focus on policy reforms and programmes in the education sector.
The Office therefore cautioned the public against attaching any credibility to the circulating posters, describing them as false and misleading.
