Takaichi Shares Startling Moment at Official Residence

Japanese Prime Minister Sonae Takaichi has revealed an unexpected fright at her official residence in Tokyo. In a post on X on August 22, the 65-year-old leader answered questions from the public, including whether she had encountered reported ghosts at the historic mansion. Takaichi said she had never seen a ghost, despite long-standing stories linking the residence to victims of attempted coups in the 1930s. Instead, she admitted that a cockroach had frightened her.
