A netizen has tackled social media influencer Joshua Buernortey Boye-Doe commonly known as Kalyjay after he claimed YouTuber Kwadwo Sheldon had misled Ghanaians on X.
According to Kalyjay, Kwadwo Sheldon has misled Ghanaians on X once again with the Hajj Village following clarification that taxpayers’ money will not be used in the construction of the Hajj Village project.
The netizen identified as Oh Menua has however asserted that Kwadwo Sheldon did not mislead anyone.
He noted that Ghanaians have their own minds and know when the government is being hypocritical.
Kalyjay in a post on X stated, “ Kwadwo Sheldon has misled the people on X once again with the Hajj Village 🤝🏽”.
Reacting to his post, Oh Menua wrote, “ @kwadwosheldon hasn’t misled anyone, we have mind of our own and we know when govt is being hypocritical. You say Hajj village won’t be funded by govt but GACL, who owes GACL? Is it not govt? Such double standard. @gyaigyimii you are becoming a NDC bot. The cheek of it”.
President John Dramani Mahama cut sod for the construction of a new Hajj Village.
The landmark project aimed at improving facilities for Ghanaian pilgrims embarking on the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca.
A vision that began under the late President John Evans Atta Mills. The initiative continues the commitment of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to enhancing the welfare of Muslim pilgrims.
However, there have been misconceptions regarding the funding and purpose of the Hajj Village project.
Many Ghanaians have compared the project to former President Akufo-Addo’s infamous National Cathedral project.
Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the minister of State for Government Communication has revealed that taxpayers’ money will not be used in the construction of the Hajj Village project.
According to Felix Kwakye Ofosu, not a pesewa of taxpayers’ money will be involved in the Hajj Village.
In a post on his official X page, Felix Kwakye Ofosu revealed that the Hajj Village is an airport terminal building which is designed to facilitate the check-in and processing of pilgrims embarking on the annual Hajj pilgrimage.
He wrote on X, “The Hajj Village is primarily an Airport Terminal Building for check-in and pilgrim facilitation owned and being built by the Ghana Airport Company.
Not a pesewa of taxpayers’ money involved”, he added.
Felix Kwaye Ofosu in another post descended heavily on NPP trying to claim the Hajj Village as their project.
He further wrote, Here is the NPP claiming only last week, to have started the Hajj Village. Today, they say they are angry because the same Hajj Village is being built”.
“The Ghana Airport Company develops and manages Air Travel facilities for profit. The Hajj Village is one such facility”, his post added.
