A number of ladies captured in
leaked pornographic photographs
and videos in Tamale are reportedly
fleeing the northern regional capital.
Explicit photographs and video
recordings of different women with
the same man in kinky sexual orgies
went viral in a hugely conservative
Muslim dominated town.
Joy News' Tamale correspondent
Hashmin Mohammed reports the
women feel embarrassed not only
because the pictures and videos
went viral but also because
residents in the area take turns to
pay awkward visits to their work
places and homes just to have
scornful glimpse at them.
One of the women is said to be the
would-be wife of a Black Stars
player, who has since demanded the
return of the bride price from the
lady's family after he saw the
pictures.
Myjoyonline.com has seen some of
the graphic pictures and videos but
cannot publish them because of the
explicit content.
The man involved is said to be the
son of a former District Chief
Executive, who is now the Principal
of one of the Training Colleges.
The young man who is believed to
have video-taped his sexual
encounters with the women,
according to reports lives in Canada
but engaged in the acts when he
visited Ghana recently. He has since
returned to Canada.
Some of the women are staff of a
reputable organisation in Tamale,
with others being nurses from one of
the hospitals in the region.
The Tamale Police have since
launched an investigation into the
matter.
According to Hashmin, the parents
of the man lodged a complaint with
the police claiming a friend stole
their son's hard drive containing the
pictures and started distributing
them.
“We are making attempts to invite
some people for questioning," ASP
Ebenezer Tetteh told Hashmin.
There has been widespread
indignation from residents in the
area with some vilifying the ladies
involved in the scandal.
Prominent Muslim leaders and
scholars have condemned the
practice in the region and called on
the authorities to arrest the
ladies and the man, insisting their
conduct might bring a curse on the
entire region.
“It is a lesson to ladies, in the first
place what will motivate you to take
naked pictures of yourself? At the
time you are taking it you have no
problem but then what happens if it goes public” one resident said.
“In fact, the guy in question needs
to be dealt with for putting such
pictures public,” another resident
told Hashmin.
