TikTok personality Camilla Alhassan has been sentenced to one year in prison by the Accra Circuit Court after pleading guilty to charges of offensive conduct and publishing false news.

The court handed down the sentence on Thursday, July 16, 2026, after Camilla admitted to sharing videos in which she made unverified claims that President John Dramani Mahama buried 32 cows as part of rituals to secure victory in the 2024 general election.

Her lawyer, Kwadwo Gyamfi Bonsu, explained after the ruling that the court dismissed the electronic abuse charge, noting that it lacked the jurisdiction to determine that particular offence.

However, the court found her guilty of offensive conduct and sentenced her to one year’s imprisonment.

According to the lawyer, the defence team pleaded with the court to consider a more lenient punishment, but the court maintained that the increasing number of similar cases required a deterrent sentence.

Camilla’s widely shared videos led to her arrest and subsequent prosecution by the Ghana Police Service.

Before the final sentencing, the court had earlier directed that she undergo a pregnancy test during one of the hearings.
