  "account": "Government spokesperson Felix Kwakye Ofosu has condemned threats against President John Dramani Mahama and his children as \"brazen criminality\", rather than protected free speech. At the GJA's 30th Media Awards in Accra, Ofosu warned politicians against excusing such violent incitement for partisan gain. He emphasized that a clear distinction must be made between criminal conduct and the expression of free speech, particularly in instances that incite hatred, violence, and intolerance. Ofosu reiterated the government's commitment to finding the killers of investigative journalist Ahmed Suale, whose murder remains unsolved. He also stressed that journalists must be free to scrutinize public spending and question official decisions, and protected from unlawful detention and physical attacks.",
  "summary": "Government Communications Minister Felix Kwakye Ofosu says death threats against President Mahama and his children are criminal acts, not free expression.",
