…Says Its Pure Blackmail, Extortion
The lady at the center of a viral intimate video of her and a businessman, Frank Lewi Kukubor, Jennifer Adjiriwaa, has given a detailed account of the circumstances surrounding the private intimate video involving the two, insisting that is pure blackmail and extortion.
She has denied sharing the video with anyone and rejected suggestions that she was involved in its subsequent circulation on social media, describing the development as part of an alleged blackmail and extortion scheme targeting Mr Kukubor.
In a petition dated November 6, 2026, and addressed to the IGP, the Director-General of the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service and the Cyber Security Authority (CSA), Ms Adjiriwaa recounted the events leading to the recording, their decision to delete it, and subsequent conversations in which the businessman reportedly informed her of threats and financial demands made against him.
She said she had known Mr Kukubor for approximately 14 years.
According to her account, the events unfolded sometime in 2020 when Mr Kukubor returned from work and called her to come and see him that there was something unusual happening to him.
When she got to there, she saw Frank Lewi Kukubor restless.
She said within a few minutes, began exhibiting unusual behaviour and appeared restless and she had to rush out to get red oil for him to drink, suspecting it was poison.
She explained that one thing led to another, resulting in an intimate encounter between them. However, she said Mr Kukubor’s conduct during the encounter was unusual and made her uncomfortable, particularly because she had never experienced such behaviour from him throughout the years they had known each other.
Recounting the seriousness of his condition, she said she remained by his side throughout the episode until he regained consciousness.
In an emotional account contained in the petition, she suggested that her intervention may have saved his life.
“I recalled vividly that on that day, if it was not because of me, Frank would have been a dead man by now. I stood by him through the day in that state until he regains consciousness,” she stated.
Couple Agreed to Delete Intimate Footage
Following the incident, Ms Adjiriwaa said she and Mr Kukubor discussed what had happened and agreed that the video recorded during their intimate encounter should be deleted.
She maintained that the decision was mutual because both understood that the footage was private and should not be retained or shared with third parties.
According to her, the video was subsequently deleted in accordance with their agreement, and she had no reason at the time to believe that it would resurface years later.
She stressed that she had never contemplated using the footage to embarrass Mr Kukubor, damage his reputation or undermine his business interests.
Although their relationship has since ended, she said she had maintained no hostility towards him and had never considered exposing their private encounter.
Ms Adjiriwaa also made a significant allegation about people she said had approached her over the years with the intention of turning her against the businessman.
She claimed that some individuals had attempted to persuade her to provide information about Mr Kukubor but that she consistently declined their approaches.
“Some do approach me with the intention of setting me against him so I can feed them with information on him, but I always declined,” she stated.
She did not identify the individuals or provide further details about when the alleged approaches occurred.
Phone-Hacking Concerns in 2022
The matter reportedly resurfaced in 2022, approximately two years after the original incident, when Mr Kukubor contacted Ms Adjiriwaa to ask whether she had shared the intimate video with anyone.
She said the businessman informed her that unidentified individuals were threatening and blackmailing him over the footage.
During their conversation, she recalled that Mr Kukubor raised concerns that his mobile phone might have been hacked, suggesting that the video could have been obtained through unauthorised access to his device.
Ms Adjiriwaa said she was surprised by the development because she believed the footage had been immediately deleted following their agreement in 2020.
She maintained that she had neither retained nor distributed the video and had not authorised anyone to publish or circulate it.
Her account raises questions about how the footage, which the two reportedly agreed to delete, was subsequently obtained and whether it had been stored, copied or accessed through another digital device or account.
She is therefore calling for a forensic investigation to establish the source of the video and identify those responsible for its circulation.
US$500,000, US$300,000 Demands
Ms Adjiriwaa further disclosed that Mr Kukubor subsequently informed her that individuals who had contacted him demanded US$500,000 and later US$300,000 to prevent the publication or circulation of the intimate footage.
She said the reported demands reinforced her suspicion that the video was being used as leverage to extort money from the businessman.
Although she was not directly involved in the communications between Mr Kukubor and the alleged blackmailers, she said the information he shared with her raised serious concerns about the motives of those behind the threats.
She believes the alleged phone hacking, financial demands and subsequent publication of the footage could be connected and has urged the Police to investigate whether the incidents form part of a coordinated extortion scheme.
Adjiriwaa Defends Kukubor, Rejects Fraud Allegations
Beyond the allegations surrounding the intimate video, Ms Adjiriwaa also defended Mr Kukubor against allegations portraying him as a fraudster.
She described him as a genuine businessman who remained committed to his work and was constantly challenging himself with new business opportunities.
She insisted that claims of his involvement in fraudulent activities were false.
She also disclosed that, despite the end of their relationship, Mr Kukubor had continued to assist her.
According to her, the businessman frequently reminded her that she had saved his life during the 2020 incident, a development she said remained significant to their relationship even after their separation.
Her comments appear intended to distance herself from any suggestion that personal disagreements following their separation could have motivated the circulation of the footage.
She reiterated that she had no interest in damaging his reputation and considered the publication of the video an invasion of their shared privacy.
Calls for CID Investigation
In her petition, Ms Adjiriwaa is asking the CID to investigate the circumstances surrounding the recording, deletion, retrieval and distribution of the intimate video.
Specifically, she wants investigators to establish whether Mr Kukubor’s mobile phone was unlawfully accessed, identify the individuals allegedly demanding US$500,000 and US$300,000, and investigate the social media accounts responsible for circulating the footage.
She is also seeking the identification of any individuals or networks suspected of obtaining and distributing the material without the consent of the persons featured in it.
Additionally, she has called for collaboration between the Police, relevant cybersecurity institutions and social media platforms to facilitate the removal of the video and prevent further circulation.
She insists that neither she nor Mr Kukubor should be subjected to public humiliation through the unauthorised circulation of private intimate material.
According to her for the 14 years she knows Frank, she knew him as “Don Vito Corleone -The Ghost” who will surely come after those behind the distribution of the video.
“His real name is “Don Vito Corleone -The Ghost” and for who this man is, even if its thousand years, he will come after those people,” she said.
She called on the general public not to give ear to the claims being circulated on social media. She said she knows him to be a God fearing individual who is always ready to help others.
The identities of the individuals allegedly behind the financial demands, the circumstances surrounding the suspected phone hacking and the precise source of the video remain matters for police investigation, she requested.
