Gloria Amenu, National Women Organiser of the United Party, has urged the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection to urgently provide psychological care and protection for women allegedly affected by the circulation of intimate videos without their consent.
Her call follows allegations that a foreign national secretly recorded and distributed intimate videos of Ghanaian women, triggering widespread public concern over digital safety and privacy.
Speaking on Newsfile on JoyNews on Saturday, February 21, Ms. Amenu described the situation as deeply troubling and warned of the significant emotional impact on the victims.
“This is serious. Those ladies are victims. They are going through immense emotional trauma. The Ministry must step in and provide psychological support and protection,” she said.
She referenced reports of broken marriages and severe emotional distress among those affected, stressing the need for urgent intervention and care.
Ms. Amenu also called for collective national action to stop the further spread of the videos, particularly on social media platforms such as TikTok.
“As a nation, we must take a bold stand. We can formally demand that TikTok remove all related videos and prevent further circulation. If we unite — especially as women — and raise our collective voices, we can push for action. These platforms respond when nations speak firmly,” she stated.
