In this news:
Rafik Mahama, the personal aide to businessman Ibrahim Mahama, has denied allegations that his boss and President John Dramani Mahama are involved in cryptocurrency trading.
This follows the circulation of a viral video claiming that Ibrahim and President Mahama have launched a cryptocurrency business yielding massive profits for investors.
The video’s caption reads: “Cryptoexplodeai by Ibrahim Mahama is generating GH¢62,000 in profit for those who invested just GH¢3,800.”
However, Rafik clarified that the video was generated using artificial intelligence (AI) by certain individuals seeking to tarnish the reputations of the two brothers.
In a Facebook post shared on April 18, 2025, Rafik urged the public to disregard the video, emphasising that it lacks credibility and authenticity.
“Kindly disregard the AI-generated video being circulated by faceless individuals or sources about Ibrahim Mahama being engaged in cryptocurrency trading with John Mahama or having any involvement in cryptocurrency business. Ibrahim Mahama is not involved in cryptocurrency trading or any related business dealings. The video is fake and should be disregarded,” he stated.
Rafik also indicated that steps are being taken to identify the creators of the video and to take decisive action as a deterrent to others.
“We have reported the matter to the relevant state authorities to have the video taken down and to identify those responsible for creating and circulating the AI-generated content,” he added.
