Man arrested for defrauding, sharing intimate videos of ex-lovers

Nana Yaw Bonsu Kwarteng was arrested by the Ghana Police Service following investigations into allegations of defrauding women through false marriage promises, blackmail, and the non-consensual sharing of intimate images. He allegedly targeted women by posing as a pastor conducting online church services on Instagram, convincing victims that God had revealed they were destined to become his wives. He is accused of obtaining intimate images and using them to blackmail victims into sending him money. He also allegedly introduced some victims to a car tyre business, collecting thousands of dollars from them.

Seven victims have formally reported the matter to the Police, with alleged offenses dating back to 2021. Nana Yaw Bonsu Kwarteng's wife, Sally Akosua Amoasah, allegedly received intimate images from her husband and is accused of threatening victims. Both suspects have been arraigned before Accra Circuit Court 1 on charges including conspiracy to commit crime, defrauding by false pretenses, and non-consensual sharing of intimate images. Nana Yaw Bonsu Kwarteng was remanded into police custody and is expected to reappear before the court on August 6, 2026.
