John Jinapor, the Member of Parliament for Yapei Kusawgu, has been forced to address and dispel persistent rumors claiming that he has benefited from a scholarship from the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC).

These rumors, spreading primarily through social media, have positioned Jinapor as one of the individuals who purportedly took advantage of the GNPC Foundation Scholarship.

In a definitive response to these allegations, Jinapor took to Facebook on April 13 to clear the air, emphatically stating his non-involvement with the GNPC’s scholarship initiatives.

He wrote, “Let me put on record that I have never applied for nor received any scholarship from the GNPC, Scholarship secretariat or GETFUND for any studies abroad.”

Jinapor’s statement not only refutes the claims of his involvement but also highlights his commitment to transparency and integrity in his political career.

He expressed concern over the misleading information circulating about him and appealed to the public to dismiss these unfounded accusations.

The MP’s response comes at a crucial time when public trust in government officials is waning, and accountability is more sought-after than ever.

By addressing the rumors directly and publicly, Jinapor aims to maintain his credibility and ensure that public focus remains on his legislative work and contributions rather than on baseless allegations.

His call to the public to ignore these “baseless, concocted, and contrived statements” is a plea for rational judgment and a focus on verified information.

As the situation unfolds, it will be important for the community to prioritize facts and evidence over the spread of misinformation.

Jinapor’s proactive stance sets a precedent for how politicians might handle similar situations in the future, advocating for clarity and truth in public discourse.
