TV host and presenter, Serwaa Amihere, has issued a statement of apology to her family, employers, and loved ones following the release of an intimate video earlier this month.
In a statement sighted by The Accra Times, the journalist said the video has caused embarrassment for her employers, businesses, and brands and has also been a source of frustration for everyone who had supported and inspired her throughout her career.
This is the first time Amihere has publicly spoken about the video since it was leaked.
“The video (which was made five years ago) has embarrassed me, my family, and my loved ones. It has also exposed my employers and the businesses and brands I represent to embarrassment. Additionally, the video has been a source of frustration for all who have supported, inspired, and encouraged me throughout my journey in the media,” the statement read.

She added that the video was leaked after five months of receiving a series of threats and extortions.
“On April 2, 2024, someone posted an intimate video of me on the Internet. This came almost five months after threats and extortion,” it said.
She also claimed to have underestimated the extent of her influence and potential, as well as what she would become and apologized for any harm the video has caused to her family, employers, loved ones, and the brands she represents.
“At the time, 5 years ago, I considerably underestimated the extent of my influence, my potential, what I would become, and what I would come to represent to this society,” an excerpt of the statement mentioned.
It may be remembered that earlier this month, an intimate video featuring Serwaa Amihere and Ghanaian businessman, Henry Fitz, was leaked on social media. The video in question sparked curiosity and speculation about the lifestyle of the female journalist.
