Erastus Asare Donkor Speaks Out Amid DJ KA’s Alleged Private Tape Cont

Award-winning broadcast journalist Erastus Asare Donkor has appealed to Ghanaians to resist the urge to share a private video linked to DJ KA, amid a growing controversy surrounding the alleged footage.

Erastus made his appeal in a Facebook post on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, calling on the public to pause and reflect before forwarding the private tape. He framed his message around empathy, asking people to consider how they would feel if the roles were reversed. "What would you do if the roles were reversed?" he asked.

The emotional and psychological consequences for anyone caught up in such a situation are serious, regardless of whether that person is a public figure or not, Erastus stressed. He emphasized that the real-world harm that comes from circulating private content without consent should not be underestimated.

The appeal comes as discussions about the alleged video continue to dominate Ghanaian social media, with many users debating whether it is ethical to share private content involving celebrities and media personalities. DJ KA is a well-known radio presenter based in Kumasi, and the controversy has drawn significant attention nationally.

Several commenters on Erastus's Facebook post turned the conversation back on DJ KA, questioning the circumstances under which the video came to exist in the first place. The incident has sparked a wider debate about the ethics of sharing private content online.

Attorney General Godfred Dame has previously made statements in response to the leaked recording involving Richard Jakpa, which has sparked significant controversy and suggestions of attempts to manipulate witness testimony in a high-stakes case against Minority Leader Cassiel Ato Forson concerning €2.37 million in financial loss.

The controversy surrounding the alleged video has highlighted the need for greater awareness about the potential consequences of sharing private content without consent. As the debate continues, it remains to be seen how the situation will unfold and what impact it will have on the individuals involved.
