Ghanaian radio presenter and music enthusiast DJ KA, whose real name is Rexford Adu Ntim, has become the subject of intense discussion on social media following reports of an alleged private video involving him and an unidentified woman.
The Kumasi-based Kessben FM presenter began trending online after the footage reportedly started circulating across several social media platforms on Tuesday, July 21, 2026.
DJ KA, who has built a strong reputation for promoting classical Ghanaian music, later addressed the controversy and claimed that the video was recorded several years ago and had allegedly been used to blackmail him.

The alleged video quickly attracted widespread attention on platforms such as Facebook, TikTok and X, formerly known as Twitter.
Many social media users expressed shock and disappointment because of DJ KA’s public image as a respected radio personality and promoter of Ghanaian musical heritage.
Others called on the public to stop searching for, downloading or sharing the footage, arguing that distributing private content without consent could cause serious emotional and reputational damage to the people involved.
DJ KA initially remained silent as the controversy continued to spread online.
However, he later reportedly addressed the matter through a post on Snapchat. According to his statement, the footage was approximately four years old.
He also claimed that someone had been using the recording to blackmail him.
The presenter did not publicly identify the alleged blackmailer or provide details about the demands reportedly made against him.
His blackmail allegation has also not been independently verified by the Ghana Police Service, the Cyber Security Authority or any other official institution.
Who recorded and released the alleged video?
Several unverified claims have circulated on social media about how the footage was recorded and how it entered the public domain.
Some online commenters have speculated that DJ KA may have been involved in recording the private encounter. However, there is currently no verified evidence confirming who recorded the footage.
There is also no confirmed information about the person who first published or distributed it online.
Social media speculation should therefore not be presented as established fact.
Until DJ KA, the woman involved or the relevant authorities provide more information, the exact circumstances surrounding the recording and its publication remain unclear.
Who is the woman in the alleged DJ KA video?
The identity of the woman allegedly shown in the footage has not been officially confirmed.
Names, photographs and personal details circulating online should be treated with caution because they may be inaccurate and could expose an innocent person to harassment.
The woman’s privacy must be respected regardless of DJ KA’s status as a public figure.
Publishing unverified claims about her identity or personal life could increase the harm caused by the alleged leak.
Who is DJ KA?
DJ KA, officially known as Rexford Adu Ntim, is a Ghanaian radio presenter and music enthusiast based in Kumasi, in the Ashanti Region.
He is associated with Kessben FM, where he has developed a loyal audience through his radio programmes and knowledge of Ghanaian music.
Beyond traditional radio, DJ KA has built a significant digital presence on platforms including TikTok, Facebook and YouTube.
His content often celebrates older Ghanaian songs, legendary musicians and the country’s rich musical history.
Through his online platforms, he has helped introduce younger audiences to classical Ghanaian music and artists whose work played an important role in shaping the country’s entertainment industry.
This cultural and educational content made him a popular figure among fans of highlife and other traditional Ghanaian music genres.
His positive public image is one of the reasons the alleged video controversy has attracted so much attention.
Social media users react to the DJ KA controversy
Reactions to the alleged leak have been divided.
Some users have criticised DJ KA over the existence of the recording, while others have expressed sympathy and condemned the person responsible for allegedly releasing it.
A section of the public has also warned that private recordings should not be treated as entertainment, regardless of whether the person involved is famous.
Other commenters have questioned DJ KA’s claim that he was being blackmailed and have called on him to provide more information.
However, online comments and personal opinions do not prove who recorded, leaked or distributed the footage.
The controversy highlights the dangers of social media trials, where individuals can be judged before the full facts of a case are established.
DJ KA claims the footage is four years old
DJ KA’s reported statement suggests that the video was not recorded recently.
According to him, the footage dates back approximately four years.
He also alleged that someone had been threatening or blackmailing him with the recording before it appeared online.
The presenter did not reveal whether he had previously paid money to the alleged blackmailer or whether other demands had been made.
He also did not confirm whether he had filed a formal complaint with the police or Ghana’s Cyber Security Authority.
Without an official investigation, it is impossible to confirm the origin of the footage or determine whether blackmail was involved.
What does Ghanaian law say about leaked private videos?
The non-consensual distribution of intimate images can be a criminal offence in Ghana.
Ghana’s Cybersecurity Act, 2020, contains provisions addressing the publication and distribution of intimate images without the consent of the person shown.
The law may apply when a person intentionally shares private intimate content involving an identifiable individual who had a reasonable expectation of privacy.
A convicted offender may face a prison sentence, depending on the circumstances and the specific legal charges brought against them.
The law also contains provisions concerning sexual extortion or blackmail involving private images.
Such offences may attract more severe penalties when a person threatens to release intimate content to obtain money, sexual activity or another benefit.
Whether these provisions apply to the DJ KA case would depend on evidence gathered during an official investigation.
Sharing the alleged video could have legal consequences
People who receive the alleged footage should avoid forwarding, uploading or reposting it.
The fact that a video is already circulating online does not automatically make its further distribution legal.
Anyone who republishes private intimate material may contribute to the violation of the privacy and dignity of the people shown.
Social media users should also avoid posting screenshots, links or descriptions that could help others locate the footage.
The safest action is to report the content to the platform where it appears and delete it without sharing it further.
People who believe they are victims of online blackmail or non-consensual intimate image distribution can report the matter to the Ghana Police Service or the Cyber Security Authority.
