Ghanaians React As Serwaa Amihere Responds To The Backlash She Has Been Receiving

According to a report by The BBC Ghana today being Wednesday, October 28, 2026, Ghanaian media personality and lawyer Serwaa Amihere has become a major topic of discussion on social media following her recent comments about the use of counterfeit fashion products among Ghanaian women.

Serwaa reportedly advised women to stop purchasing fake clothes, imitation designer bags and wigs, encouraging them to choose original products instead. Her comments have attracted considerable attention, with many Ghanaians expressing contrasting opinions about her advice and its relevance to the realities of everyday life.

Some social media users have thrown their support behind the media personality, arguing that purchasing original products is a better choice for consumers who can afford them. They believe that her message encourages people to value authenticity rather than spend money on items that imitate expensive brands.

However, other Ghanaians have disagreed with her position, arguing that the prices of original fashion products make them unaffordable for many people. According to critics, individuals should be allowed to choose clothes, bags and wigs that suit their budgets without facing unnecessary criticism.

As the debate over her comments continues, Serwaa has made another statement that has attracted further public attention.

“I am the attention, so I don’t do so much or anything to attract attention,” she reportedly said.

The remark has added to the conversations surrounding her recent comments, with social media users offering different interpretations of what she meant. While some have praised her confidence and self-assurance, others have continued to question her statements.

The development has reignited discussions about fashion trends, personal image and the influence celebrities and media personalities have on public opinion. It has also highlighted the financial considerations that often shape consumers’ purchasing decisions.

Although some people agree with Serwaa’s call for women to purchase original products, others maintain that fashion should remain a matter of personal preference and affordability.

The discussion continues to generate reactions across social media, as Ghanaians debate both her advice on counterfeit fashion items and her assertion that she does not need to make extra efforts to attract attention.
