David Kwodow Prah Afful, the man seen in a viral video threatening to kill the President, Members of Parliament, and other government officials if he had a gun or a cutlass, has been sentenced to seven months in prison.
Afful, popularly known on social media as Kwame Nkrumah II, appeared before an Accra Circuit Court where he pleaded guilty to charges of threat of death and offensive conduct conducive to the breach of the peace.
He pleaded with government officials to forgive him for his behaviour.
The Ghana Police Service arrested Afful for issuing death threats and inciting violence during a TikTok livestream. He was picked up at his hideout near Kasoa Market around 2:20 p.m. on Saturday, September 13.
Following his arrest, the police stressed: “While it upholds freedom of speech, it will not tolerate statements that incite violence, insecurity, or public disorder.”
