Dr. Gideon Boako commented on this allegations in a Facebook post making it clear that, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia does not hold British citizenship.
He stated that "The attention of the Office of the Vice President has been drawn to a malicious social media allegation that the Vice President holds a British citizenship while holding the office of Vice President, contrary to the laws of Ghana.
We wish to state in clear terms that Vice President Mahamudu Bawumia does not hold British citizenship and has never held British or any other citizenship other than being a Ghanaian. The allegation should be treated with the contempt it deserves."
