Popular Ghanaian TikTok couple arrested over concerning claims
The Tema Community Police have reportedly taken into custody Godpapa The Greatest and Empress Lupita, a couple whose videos gained significant attention on social media platforms recently. The couple’s viral content showcased concerning behavior on the TikTok platform.
Among the actions captured in the videos, Godpapa The Greatest, previously identified as a pastor, and his wife were observed engaging in activities such as smoking, which raised eyebrows within the online community.
During an interview with YouTuber Kofi TV, the couple shockingly admitted to the killing of one of their two cedhildren, claiming that the child was possessed by an evil spirit.
Empress Lupita, the children’s mother, stated that her husband foresaw a future where their son, named El Shaa, would become a demonic entity capable of spawning further demons and potentially causing harm to Ghana and the world. In order to protect the nation, they believed it was necessary to sacrifice him.
In a subsequent interview with Kofi TV, the surviving child, an 8-year-old who managed to escape from his parents, confirmed that his brother, El Shaa, was indeed murdered by his mother and father. The young boy revealed that his parents had poisoned El Waa through ‘gari soakings’, and when the intended outcome failed to occur, they buried him alive.
Additionally, the boy made several allegations of mistreatment against his parents.
According to the young survivor, his parents would occasionally defecate in a bucket and later blend it to prepare soup for them to consume along with banku, a local dish.
In light of the disturbing revelations made by the child and the incriminating content captured in the viral videos, the Tema Community Two police have reportedly apprehended the couple. It is reported that the authorities will involve them in their ongoing investigations regarding this tragic incident.

Ghana Tourism Authority is leading Ghana’s participation at ITB Berlin, which opened in Berlin with a vibrant national pavilion highlighting Ghana’s rich cultural heritage, tourism destinations and investment opportunities.
March 5 has been designated as Ghana Day, a special platform to promote Ghana’s languages, cuisine, Kente, festivals and business prospects to the global tourism community. The stand has already drawn strong interest with traditional arts and crafts displays, immersive multimedia presentations and popular Ghanaian snacks.
Seven private-sector players are exhibiting alongside government officials as part of efforts to deepen trade partnerships, expand market access, and attract investment across the hospitality, heritage tourism, ecotourism, and creative arts sectors.
Ahead of the official opening, the Ghana delegation also engaged young Ghanaian investors in Germany in collaboration with V Afrika-Verein and the Ghana Embassy, strengthening diaspora investment linkages and highlighting opportunities within the tourism value chain.
Ghana’s coordinated presence at ITB Berlin 2026 reinforces its strategy to position the country as the Gateway to Africa and a competitive destination for leisure travel and global investment.
The Member of Parliament for Nsawam Adoagyiri, Frank Annoh Dompreh, has expressed concern over delays in the release of the District Assemblies Common Fund, warning that the situation is stalling development across the country.
On his facebook page, he described as a matter of urgent national importance, the Minority Chief Whip pointed to what he sees as a growing crisis of unpaid contractors, abandoned projects, and halted infrastructure works in many districts.
He noted that several communities are grappling with half completed schools, unfinished health facilities, abandoned markets, deteriorating roads, and stalled sanitation projects.
According to him, many contractors who have executed projects for district assemblies have not been paid, forcing some construction firms to demobilise from sites while workers lose their jobs.
He stressed that the District Assemblies Common Fund is not a discretionary allocation but a constitutional requirement under Article 252 of the 1992 Constitution, intended to support development at the local level.
In his view, years of delayed releases and accumulated arrears have weakened district development financing and disrupted projects meant to improve living conditions in communities.
He further argued that some payments made in recent years were largely the settlement of old debts rather than funding for new or ongoing projects, a situation he believes has affected contractor confidence and local economic activity.
He described the issue as more than a budgetary challenge, characterising it as a development emergency and a governance concern.
He therefore urged the appropriate authorities to pay outstanding DACF arrears, settle contractors who have completed their work, and ensure that transfers to districts are automatic and predictable.
He maintained that decentralisation can only succeed when district assemblies receive adequate and timely funding to carry out development projects.
He emphasised that stalled projects directly affect ordinary citizens, since they rely on such infrastructure for education, healthcare, transportation, sanitation, and economic activities.
He called for renewed attention to grassroots development, insisting that national progress should not be concentrated only in major cities but extended to all communities.
