The Ghana Police Service has arrested Nana Poku Piesie, also known as Kwabena, who was seen in a viral video claiming to have had sexual intercourse with a minor.
In a statement issued by the Police on their social media handles, the suspect is in custody assisting them with investigations.
“We wish to assure the public that the suspect will be taken through the due process of the law,” the Police indicate.
The video of the man in question who is seen admitting to sexually assaulting the 14-year-old girl, has raised hackles, especially among some Ghanaian celebrities.
Speaking during a radio programme on Sompa FM, the man is heard talking about how he had sexual affair with the young girl when she was in primary school till she was done with her high school education.
Admitting that he is currently facing the effects of his actions, the man noted that a teacher is employing similar means to have his way with his [the perpetrator’s] daughter.
“A few years ago, I had sex with a 14-year-old girl. Her father is a wealthy man in Dormaa Ahenkro,” he noted.
“After my daughter also got to that age, I observed that one teacher had also started making sexual advances at her. I told my wife about it and she reminded me about my sinful act with the other girl,” he said giving a background to how karma serves people who do evil.
This man, who inferably had taught before, indicated that he got to sleep with the 14-year-old school girl through extra classes, adding that he broke her virginity.
But the Police assured the public that the suspect will be taken through the due process of the law.
