## Resource

A Ghanaian TikTok influencer, Camilla Alhassan, got sentenced to jail after posting unverified claims that the president sacrificed 32 cows for an election and hid sanitary pad distribution efforts. With no evidence, her viral videos reached 70K followers — enough to trigger legal action. The court upheld her sentence, calling it necessary to deter social media misinformation. This isn’t the first time an influencer faces jail for online stunts — last year, another TikToker got seven months for death threats. The case echoes the president’s push to “sanitize” social media and crack down on falsehoods, sparking debate over free speech versus regulation in a democracy grappling with rising fake news.
