A teenager (name withheld) at the center of a viral ‘sex’ video involving the Assembly Member for Effiakuma West, Edward Senam Azalekor, has narrated how the incident occurred.
According to him, he was dragged from his hostel, assaulted, and forced into having sex with the young girl just by the side of the road at Effia Cocoa Villa in the Western Region while many looked on.
Narrating the incident to Nhyiraba Paa Kwesi Simpson, the host of Connect FM’s Omanbapa Morning Show, the victim indicated that around 1 a.m. on the day of the incident, the Assembly Member arrived at his hostel with three other individuals and a girl they claimed he was in a relationship with.
“They took me to their vehicle and drove me to a vulcanizing shop around Effia Cocoa Villa. The girl’s mother was there when I arrived,” the victim recounted.
He alleged that upon arrival, the Assembly Member initially asked him to have an affair with the girl’s mother. When he resisted, the situation escalated.
“That was when he went into his vehicle, brought out a belt, and started beating both me and the girl. He then asked me to sleep with the girl beside the roadside where the vulcanizing shop is located,” he said.
The victim further claimed that passersby watched as the incident unfolded, while others recorded the scene with their mobile phones.
“People passing by were watching us while we were being forced to have an affair, and others stood by recording videos. I could not tell my friends what had happened out of shame,” he added.
A colleague of the victim, Joseph Idun, said they attempted to trace their friend after he was taken away but were unsuccessful.
“It was around 1 a.m. when they came to our place. They claimed our friend was in a relationship with the girl and said they wanted to take him away. They made him get into their vehicle and drove off. We tried to trace them, but we didn’t have a vehicle, so we were unsuccessful,” he stated.
He added that the victim returned a few hours later but refused to disclose what had happened until a video of the incident surfaced.
The victim’s father, Yaw Agyemang, said he only became aware of the incident after being shown a video.
“I was at home when someone approached me with a video of my son being forced to have an affair with a girl. I immediately called my son to ask why he had not informed me,” he explained.
Mr. Agyemang said he subsequently contacted his son’s teacher, who denied knowledge of the incident but promised to look into the matter.
“I did not understand why the school had not taken any action or reported the incident to the police. I wanted to report it myself, but the teacher asked me to exercise patience since my son was under their care,” he added.
In the meantime, Police have announced the arrest of suspects, Edward Azalekor, 52 years, and Martin Amuzu, 35, who is an uncle to the female victim, on Thursday, 26th February, 2026, at Effiakuma.
