The Ghana Police Service has arrested Nana Poku Piesie, also known as Kwabena, after a video surfaced in which he admitted to sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl.

The police have confirmed that the suspect is in custody and is assisting with investigations. They have assured the public that the suspect will be taken through the due process of the law.

The arrest follows widespread outrage and calls for action from the public, including Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie and actress Lydia Forson.

The video, which has gone viral, shows Nana Poku admitting to having a sexual relationship with the minor, which began when she was in primary school and continued until she completed high school.

In a radio interview on Sompa FM, Nana Poku claimed that he had sexual relations with the 14-year-old girl and that her father is a wealthy man in Dormaa Ahenkro. He also stated that a teacher is now making sexual advances towards his own daughter, implying that karma is serving him for his past actions.

Nana Poku's admission has sparked widespread condemnation, with many calling for him to be held accountable for his actions.

Lydia Forson wrote on social media: "If I speak on this video now, you will say I hate men. You will ignore that this man openly bragged about sleeping with a 14-year-old on air. You will instead focus on my outrage; or make it the 14-year-old's fault for allowing this."

Sarkodie reposted Lydia's comment, adding: "I sense no hate here. He should not be walking around freely."

According to Section 101 of the Criminal Code Act 29, 1960, "a person who naturally or unnaturally carnally knows a child under sixteen years of age, whether with or without consent, commits a criminal offence and is liable on summary conviction to a term of imprisonment of not less than seven years and not more than twenty-five years."
