24-year-old man reportedly arrested over alleged abuse of 8-year-old boy

A social media video has sparked concern and calls for police intervention following allegations that a 24-year-old man sexually abused an eight-year-old boy.

The one-minute video, which was shared on X on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, shows the man, identified as Morrison, kneeling while being questioned by some individuals believed to have confronted him over the alleged incident.

According to claims made in the video, Morrison allegedly approached the eight-year-old boy while he was grazing cattle and offered him GH¢20 before taking him into a classroom.

The account further alleges that the man had previously sexually abused the child and returned on another occasion to allegedly repeat the act.

The allegations contained in the video have not been independently verified.

The footage has since generated widespread reactions online, with several social media users urging the Ghana Police Service to investigate the matter and take appropriate action if the allegations are substantiated.

Authorities have not, at the time of reporting, publicly confirmed the alleged incident or announced any arrest in connection with the case.
