Police have arrested a woman accused of spreading false information online. Promise Yayra Asamani, age 20, was taken into custody by the IGP’s Cyber Vetting and Enforcement Team.
Her arrest followed a complaint from an Uber driver. Selasie Kwaku Anthonio, 43, reported the incident on March 11, 2026. He stated that his photograph was used in a post on Snapchat.
The post contained damaging and untrue claims about Mr. Anthonio. Asamani is accused of publishing this false news. She has since been granted police enquiry bail.
This action highlights the police commitment to addressing false publications on social media. The Cyber Vetting and Enforcement Team works to protect citizens from online defamation and misinformation.
