The government of Ghana cannot afford to put incubators in every hospital, provide schools with computers but it has money to build a new chamber for MPs who come from communities with no schools/hospitals/courts/factories. Isn't this hatred? We need to make them

Friends, the Government of Ghana (GoG) has Pegasus spyware, which can be used to hack phones and spy on people. This spyware is reportedly in use in Ghana. So when you get your phones back, please have them checked by someone who knows about these things.
If you were carried from 37 to the regional headquarters yesterday & have been asked to report at 1pm today to claim your phone, i have permission to let you know arrangements have been made for legal assistance with the process.
Please do not talk to officers by yourself.
