The Minister of Gender, Children and Social Protection (MoGCSP) Madam Otiko Afisa Djaba has bemoaned a situation where some people use Facebook in the name of the Gender Ministry to defraud people by demanding GH¢400 from them as registration fee for the LEAP program.
The fraudsters normally direct the victims to pay the fees through mobile money.

The minister made this known during a working visit at Cape Coast on Wednesday and to monitor the disbursement of funds to 172 LEAP beneficiaries at Mfantseman Municipality of the Central Region
She stressed the need to monitor the cash transfer whenever LEAP is being paid to beneficiaries, adding that the cash transfer was the 48thcycle of payment since LEAP policy was instituted.
