A netizen of social media page X has shockingly alleged that whispers going around indicate that the former Electoral Commission chairperson, Charlotte Osei is being considered to replace the Vice President Professor Jane Naana Opoku Agyemang.
The netizen comment comes on the back of the vice president being rushed to the University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC) on Saturday, March 29, 2025, after a sudden illness on Friday night after work.
However, after administering the initial treatment, experts from the University of Ghana Medical Centre advised her to seek further treatment abroad.
This health update was disclosed in a statement issued by the Spokesperson to the President and Minister for Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, on Sunday, March 30, 2025.
In a post on X, the netizen wrote, “ What is wrong with our Vice President Prof Naana Jane Opuko-Agyemang and why are there talks and whisperings of Charlotte Osei being considered as her possible replacement? What is the current state of our. What is going on????”
However, the minister of Foreign Affairs, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, has debunked rumours about Ghana’s Vice President, Prof. Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang facing a critical health crisis.
According to Okudzeto, the Veep is in good health and will soon resume her duties.
Addressing Ghanaians living in Nigeria, Ablakwa emphasised that prayers from Ghanaians both at home and abroad have contributed to her recovery.
“Some fears about the state of our mother, the first female vice president of the Republic of Ghana. I also want to assure that she is doing very, very well. Your prayers worked, your prayers from all of us, Ghanaians at home and abroad, have really worked.
“I have heard from her, so I know what I am talking about, and she’s doing well,” he stated.
Ablakwa urged the public to disregard what he described as “vicious and unGhanaian evil propaganda” being circulated about Prof. Opoku-Agyemang’s health.
He expressed confidence in her ability to inspire young girls and women across the nation.
Reports however indicate that the Prof Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang began a three-week medical break on April 7 2025.
According to Jubilee House sources, the break follows medical advice from her doctor.
The last we heard from Charlotte Osei was when she recently posted on her social media page triggering a firestorm on X following Chief Justice Gertrude Sackey Torkornoo’s demands to see petitions seeking her removal.
Charlotte Osei reacting to the development posted a GIF of a woman sipping something, accompanied by the caption, “Sip sip …” which suggests she is enjoying what is going on.
Her post quickly obtained interest on social media, with users making comparisons between her dismissal and the present procedures against the Chief Justice.
Many users suggested that the stick that was used to beat Charlotte Osei is being used for the Chief Justice.
Meanwhile, John Mahama appointed Charlotte Osei as a member of the 8-member Constitutional Review Committee.
The Constitutional Review Committee was tasked to see through the implementation of the Constitutional Review Process.
