CLAIM: The ADC coalition shared an image of a Ghana-Must-Go bag stuffed with money on X (archived here) as evidence of “collusion everywhere” in the election; that the All Progressives Congress (APC) and All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) “turned the process into a heist and pushed out the coalition.”
FINDINGS: A reverse image check reveals that the image of the “Ghana Must Go” bag shared by ADC is unrelated to the just-concluded election. The image is from 2019, when the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) seized cash during a patrol against vote-buying in Makurdi, Benue State. Although there have been reports of vote buying, Premium Times and Sahara TV posted the exact picture on Mar. 9, 2019.
