Minister Denies Joselyn Dumas Appointment

Minister of State for Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, has dismissed reports claiming that actress Joselyn Dumas has been appointed to a position in John Mahama’s government.

The reports, which surfaced on various media platforms on March 2, 2025, alleged that the filmmaker had been named Deputy Director of Diaspora Affairs at the Office of the President.

However, speaking to myjoyonline.com, Felix Kwakye Ofosu clarified that while he could confirm the appointments of several creative arts personalities to government roles, Joselyn Dumas was not among them.

“Miss Dumas has not been appointed to any such position. I can confirm that of the rest,” he told Myjoyonline.com.

In the past few weeks, Kofi Okyere Darko was appointed as Director of Diaspora Affairs at the Office of the President, Rex Omar earned a position as Coordinator of Blackstar Experience, Abeiku Santana as Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana Tourism Authority, Kafui Danku as Executive Secretary of the National Film Authority and James Gardiner as the Deputy Executive Secretary of the National Film Authority.

These appointments, confirmed by Felix Kwakye Ofosu, were not announced on the official social media handles of the Presidency or the Minister of Government’s Communications, a situation that raised doubts among some people.

They were made by either the media through their verifiable sources or close friends of the appointees just as Joselyn Dumas.

When news of Joselyn Dumas’ alleged appointment went viral on social media, some users reacted with frustration, questioning her affiliation with the party.
