Information Minister, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, has petitioned the Bank of Ghana (BoG) and National Media Commission (NMC) about the activities of “money doublers” on television and urged them to take appropriate action.
In a tweet, the Minister said: “I have written to the Bank of Ghana (BoG) and National Media Commission (NMC) to take note of the activities of money doublers on TV and act appropriately to tackle it.”

I have never said anywhere that the office of the President has issued such a letter. Neither have I said that the NMC (or Authority as the writer suggest) has issued such a ban.

The Ghana Cedi which is produced under the authority of the BOG cannot and ought not to be duplicated. The BOG and NMC have a responsibility to take a view of such acts on our televisions and act accordingly.
The comments came following some media reports that the government intends to ban all broadcasts and advertisements of fetish priests and ‘Mallams’.
