The Minister of Communications, Digital Technology, and Innovations, Samuel Nartey George, has revealed that he has been advised to refrain from responding to comments on his social media pages.

According to him, he personally manages all his accounts, responding to comments that concern him and using the platforms to advocate for good governance.

However, since his ministerial appointment, some individuals have urged him to reduce the frequency of his responses on social media to avoid controversies.

"I go on Twitter and choose mini-mini-minimal, which of these comments am I going to respond to? Even though now they say that's because I'm a minister, I should slow down. But people ask, am I the one who manages my socials? Yes, I handle all my socials myself. That's my phone. Nobody else touches my socials. Nobody has access to them. I respond to every single one," he said during the VL Exposure 2025 program.

The Ningo-Prampram Member of Parliament added that he has gained mastery over fear, which explains his bold public statements that often surprise people.

"The other part of it is people say, Sam, you appear so courageous, you're so fearless. No, that's not true. There's no human being who is fearless. Do I fear things? I think I'm my biggest hero in the world. I'm scared.

"But I've come to a place where fear is an emotion, like love, like lust, like hunger, like thirst. It's an emotion, a feeling. And when you master a feeling or an emotion, you control it. When you allow that emotion or feeling to overcome you, it controls you. So it's a choice. I've mastered fear. And that's why it doesn't have control over me. I'm able to master it so well," he added.

Sam George is well-known for his active presence on social media, especially X.
