The Office of the Vice President has refuted claims circulating on social media that political commentator, Kevin Taylor, is being housed at the official residence of Vice President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang under national security protection.
Speaking in an interview on Adom TV on August 1, 2025, Maame Ama Pratt, Press Secretary to the Vice President, dismissed the reports as false and baseless.
She clarified that not only does Kevin Taylor not reside at the Vice President’s residence, but he has also never visited her office or home.
“He is not living at the Vice President’s house. That is the end of the matter,” she stated.
She added, “He doesn’t live with the Vice President and hasn’t been to our office either.”
Pratt added that there was no need for the Vice President’s Office to officially respond to such claims, as not every allegation warrants a response.
The rumours gained traction on social media after Ghanaian media personality Paul Adom-Otchere on July 15, 2025, alleged that Kevin Taylor, host of With All Due Respect on Loud Silence TV, was being housed at the Vice President’s residence despite a court warrant for his arrest at the time.
Adom-Otchere further alleged that Taylor was receiving state protection without being apprehended.
However, on July 22, 2025, the Supreme Court quashed the arrest warrant in a 4-1 majority decision.
The panel was presided over by Justice Imoro Amadu Tanko and included Justices Senyo Dzamefe, Gbiel Simon Suurbaareh, and Philip Bright Mensah. Justice Ernest Gaewu was the sole dissenter in the ruling.
The arrest warrant stemmed from a contempt of court charge initiated by Justice Eric Kyei-Baffour of the Court of Appeal, who was sitting as an additional High Court judge.
