Traditional authorities, institutional stakeholders, and guests gathered to witness what has been described as a groundbreaking milestone in alternative education and global leadership training.

The presence of such a diverse and high-level audience underscored the significance of the initiative and its potential to influence both local and international academic landscapes.

Veteran Ghanaian actor Paa George has dismissed rumours circulating on social media claiming that he has died, describing the reports as false and malicious.

Speaking in an exclusive interview on Max FM’s Drive time show with Kumi Kasa, the seasoned actor revealed that he first heard about the alleged death from a friend who called him early in the morning to confirm the news.

According to Paa George, the caller repeatedly mentioned his name to ensure he was truly speaking to him.

“It was early in the morning that someone called me, and he mentioned my name, ‘Paa’, and I answered. He called my name again, and I responded. He asked, ‘Paa, is that you?’ I said yes and asked if he was okay,” he recounted.

The friend then informed him that social media platforms were awash with reports claiming he was dead.

“I asked what was going on, and he said it was all over social media that I am dead,” the actor stated.

Paa George expressed frustration over what he described as the third false death announcement about him. He indicated that such rumours have been intentionally spread over a long period, largely because he has chosen not to confront those behind them.

“I told them they are all sick. This is the third time they are announcing that I’m dead. They do that because I don’t confront them,” he said.

While acknowledging that death is inevitable for everyone, the veteran actor said he was pained by the repeated false reports about his demise.

“Everyone is going to die; however, I’m in pain because it is not yet my time. So if you wish death for me, death will come for you,” he added.

President John Dramani Mahama has assured teachers and school administrators across the country that under his leadership, they will be free to express concerns about the education sector without fear of victimisation or intimidation.

Speaking at the 54th National Delegates Conference of the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT) in Accra on Monday 5th January, 2026, President Mahama said Ghana’s education system can only progress through openness, accountability and dialogue — not silence and repression.

He noted that in recent years, some heads of schools had been sanctioned or transferred for publicly highlighting challenges faced in their institutions, a development he described as unhealthy for national education growth.

“We have emerged from a dark period of oppression in our educational sector,” Mahama said.

“Many school heads were sacked or transferred for speaking up when things were not going well.”

He stressed that critical feedback from professionals on the ground is essential, and government must listen rather than silence those entrusted with the responsibility of shaping young minds.

“The best way to grow our education sector is through transparency, freedom of speech and even criticism where necessary,” he stated.

President Mahama assured GNAT delegates that teachers will not be punished for honesty under his administration.

“As President, I can assure you that I will protect your right to speak up and to point out when things are not going well,”

he pledged.

He said the partnership between government and teachers must be built on trust, mutual respect and open engagement, adding that teachers are key stakeholders in national development.

GNAT delegates welcomed the assurance, describing it as an important commitment toward promoting professionalism and restoring confidence within the education workforce.

President Mahama’s message formed part of a broader call for renewed collaboration between government, teachers and labour unions to strengthen Ghana’s education system.
