Ghana’s Ministry of Communications is preparing to introduce a bill in Parliament aimed at curbing the spread of misinformation and hate speech.

The proposed legislation comes amid increasing concern over the harmful effects of false information and divisive content across both online and offline platforms.

Officials say the bill seeks to promote responsible communication, safeguard national cohesion, and protect citizens from the dangers of disinformation.

Parliament is expected to debate the proposal in the coming weeks as Ghana strengthens efforts to regulate its fast-evolving information landscape.
