YEN.com.gh fact check can confirm that the photos on the said poster are fake and should be treated as such.
Our investigations revealed that the poster is from the 2016 campaign season when the NDC kicked against the candidature of Murtala Mohammed and called for the retention of President Mahama but a change in the parliamentary.
Another key thing to note is that the photo on the poster is not what John Mahama is using for his 2020 campaign posters.
“I want to place it on record that a similar banner with Murtala and President Akufo-Addo has emerged indicating yet another skirt and blouse and these are the works of some faceless groups setting the stage for some agenda,” Dr. Anyars noted.
