Ghanaian broadcaster Serwaa Amihere has opened up about the emotional challenges she endured following the circulation of an int!mate video involving her last year. Speaking at the Ignite Youth Empowerment Thanksgiving Service, Serwaa detailed her experience with depression and highlighted the critical support she received from her close friend, Obuobia Darko-Opoku, during the ordeal.
Recalling a particularly difficult moment, Serwaa shared how Obuobia’s thoughtful gesture helped uplift her. “I was depressed and crying at home,” she revealed. “Then she came and said, ‘Let’s go and buy ice cream.’ She picked me up and took me to Osu, even when I tried to wear a cap to hide my face. She encouraged me to enjoy the day and bought me a big cup of ice cream. That small act of kindness made a significant difference.”
Serwaa expressed deep gratitude, saying, “Auntie Obuobia, thank you because I never told you how grateful I was for that ride. It did me a lot of good.”
Reflecting on the challenges she faced, Serwaa cautioned young people about the lasting impact of their decisions. “I went through an extremely difficult year last year,” she admitted. “Be extremely careful about the choices you make, because they could come back to haunt you. That’s exactly what happened to me.”
She also praised Obuobia’s unwavering support and kindness, describing her as “an amazing person” and expressing her love and appreciation for her continued guidance.
The leaked video, which surfaced on April 2, 2024, caused a media frenzy and prompted an independent investigation by Serwaa’s employer, EIB Network. In a statement released on July 5, 2024, the network confirmed that no misconduct or breaches had been found on Serwaa’s part.
The statement also revealed that criminal proceedings were underway against those responsible for unlawfully sharing the video.
Serwaa concluded by advising young women to be mindful of their decisions, emphasizing the importance of protecting their reputation and future.
