2 Adolescent lovers flogged, link sex video surface on the internet
NewsReport gathered that after their sex video was released on social media, two adolescent lovers — a tricycle driver and a ticket salesperson at the Wa Central Market in the Upper West Region – each suffered 20 lashes.
After the Overlord of the Waala Traditional Area, Wa-Naa Fuseini Seidu Pelpuo IV, ordered their caning by several Wa youth, the teens were flogged.
On Sunday, May 29, 2022, the lady in question allegedly published the sex tape on social media.
As their actions were against the Waala Traditional Area’s conventions and traditions, the two were beaten.
The two lovers were meant to take 100 canes apiece at first, but that number was cut to 20.
The Waala Traditional Area constituted a by-law in late 2021, banning such practices after it was observed that leaked sex video were on the surge amongst the youth in the Wa municipality.
The Overlord of the Waala Traditional Area has warned that anyone who leaks their sex tape or nude photos will face the Bye-laws of the Traditional Area.
