Ladies who ganged raped Uber driver compensated him with ₵105,600 – GHOne TV report

In an Official Facebook Post on 9 October 2026, GHOne TV reported that the Uber driver who was allegedly gang‑raped by three women in Kasoa has been compensated with ₵105,600 by the ladies involved. According to the post, the money was presented to him live in the studios of Kasapa, marking a dramatic turn in a case that had already generated widespread public attention.  

The incident, which the driver narrated earlier, shocked many Ghanaians because sexual assault against men is rarely reported and often dismissed or stigmatized. The driver explained that he had been lured into what he thought was a routine trip, only to be assaulted by the three women. His testimony sparked conversations about male vulnerability, sexual violence, and the need for equal recognition of victims regardless of gender.  

The compensation of ₵105,600, though significant, has raised questions about justice and accountability. Some observers argue that financial settlements cannot erase the trauma of sexual assault, while others see it as a form of restitution that acknowledges wrongdoing. The fact that the money was handed over publicly in a media studio added another layer of controversy, with critics questioning whether such a sensitive matter should be handled in such a manner.  

At its core, the report underscores the complexities of addressing sexual violence in Ghana. Victims often face stigma, disbelief, and ridicule, which discourages them from seeking justice. This case, however, has forced society to confront uncomfortable realities: that men can also be victims, and that their experiences deserve equal seriousness and support.  

The commentary around the compensation has sparked debate online. Supporters argue that the payment is a step toward accountability, while critics insist that the matter should have been pursued through legal channels rather than financial settlement. Others worry that such outcomes could set a precedent where serious crimes are trivialized or resolved outside the justice system.  

Regardless of perspective, the case has highlighted the urgent need for broader conversations about sexual violence, victim support, and the role of institutions in ensuring justice. The Uber driver’s courage in speaking out has already challenged stereotypes and may encourage other victims to break their silence.
