The controversial ‘For the Records’ online show host had been arrested last week. Protests erupted online with people bashing the government for political persecution and calling for his release. Afrifa was released hours later.
Following his most recent arrest, netizens took to social media to attack the government once more. However, new information indicates this arrest was due to making threats of releasing n*des of his ex-girlfriend, who made a report to the Police, leading to a warrant being obtained by the Police cybercrime unit. Cybercrime is reportedly investigating Afrifa for breaching the laws regarding publishing private photos of others.
