Director-General of the Signals Bureau, Dr. George Atta Boateng, says his outfit is actively monitoring social media platforms to track and pursue individuals who deliberately circulate misinformation with the intent to disrupt public order.
He warned that legal action will be taken against anyone found culpable, urging the public to verify information before sharing it online.
Dr. Atta Boateng made the remarks at the opening of a new Signals Bureau facility in Koforidua aimed at boosting the agency’s capacity to respond swiftly to security threats.
“I must also say that those who hide behind TikTok and Facebook to spread misinformation and disinformation to incite violence, to cause anarchy and chaos, we’ll come after you no matter where you are. Initially it used to take us 24 hours, now it is coming down to 12 hours. No matter where you are we’ll find,” he cautioned.
