Sammy Awuku condemns sex tapes leaks in Ghana; calls for caution.

 

National Youth Organizer of the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP), Samuel Awuku has condemned in no uncertain terms leaked sex tapes making rounds on various social media websites.

He was particularly worried about how some unscrupulous men share such explicit pictures and videos after having their way with the victims just to prove a point.
“I am incensed by these leaked sex tapes; is this how some want to portray Ghanaian women to the outside world? Would you be happy if it was you sister?”.

Sammy Awuku made the comment on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen programme on Friday while commenting on the latest sex pictures of some ladies in the Northern regional capital, Tamale.

The pictures depicted nude ladies numbering about 30 engaging in explicit unprotected sexual intercourse with a Ghanaian young man based in Canada identified as a son of one of the principals of the teacher training colleges.

The offensive sex videos and pictures of locally known ladies living in the Tamale Metropolis started streaming within the city about a week ago especially on social media, sparking spontaneous condemnations from religious and opinion leaders. The situation has created a negative picture about ladies in Tamale.

This has been condemned by many including the Gender Ministry with many calling for the prosecution of the culprits.

In support, Sammy Awuku appealed to the Tamale Regional Police command to dispassionately investigate the issue and if necessary prosecute the cases to serve as a disincentive to others.

He expressed worry at how such pornographic cyber exploitations which hitherto was a taboo in the society is gaining root in Ghana.

The NPP youth leader underscored the need for the country to deal decisively with such people to serve as a deterrent to others.

Sammy Awuku also advised young girls to be cautious and abstain from premarital sex in other not to fall victim of such atrocious acts.
