An Accra Circuit Court has sentenced New Patriotic Party (NPP) supporter and TikToker Camilla Alhassan to one year in prison after she pleaded guilty to charges of offensive conduct and the publication of false news.
The conviction stems from videos she shared on social media in which she falsely alleged, without providing any evidence, that President John Dramani Mahama buried 32 cows as part of alleged rituals to secure victory in the 2024 general election.
Following her guilty plea, the court convicted and sentenced her to a one-year custodial term.
The case highlights the legal consequences of publishing false information, particularly on social media, and reinforces the need for individuals to verify claims before sharing them publicly.
