Popular Ghanaian media personality, Serwaa Amihere, has finally addressed the issue surrounding her leaked private video.
In a statement posted on Instagram, Serwaa revealed that the video was filmed five years ago, and at the time, she underestimated the extent of her influence, potential, and the role she would play in society.
She revealed that the intimate video was released online after enduring five months of threats and extortion, despite efforts made by law enforcement to apprehend the perpetrators.
Serwaa went on to express her sincere apologies for the distress and disappointment caused to her loved ones and family by the leaked footage. She emphasized that she has learned invaluable lessons from this experience for the future.
Read her full statement below,
“On April 2, 2024, someone posted an intimate video of me on the internet. This came almost 5 months after threats and extortion, along with efforts by the police to bring the extortionists to book.
The video (which was made 5 years ago) has severely embarrassed me, my family and my loved ones. It has also exposed my employers, and the businesses and brands I represent to embarrassment.
Additionally, the video has been a source of frustration to all who have been my support, inspiration, and encouragement throughout my journey in the media.
At the time, 5 years ago, I considerably underestimated the extent of my influence, my potentials, what I would become, and what I would come to represent to this society.
Sincerely, I say sorry for the embarrassment, disappointment, and frustration which this matter has caused to my family and loved ones, to the distinguished businesses and brands I represent, and to you.
In all, I have learnt deeply useful lessons for the future.
Thank you.~ Serwaa Amihere
April 24, 2024, Accra.”
