Lydia Wiafe, a 41-year-old hairdresser from Ejisu Apromase in the Ashanti Region, expressed her anguish and fear after photos of her in military uniform appeared on social media.
Lydia Wiaf denies any connection to the images and strongly claims she never served in the Ghana Armed Forces.
The viral images, which sparked outrage over her age and alleged ties to the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), had a significant psychological and financial impact on Wiafe.
She expressed her frustration with the situation in an interview with Citi News, stressing that it had adversely affected her livelihood.
“I suspect this person took photos of me during one of our political rallies and events and spread them. Many people, including relatives, have been calling me and I cannot work or even earn a living due to this despicable act .” Lydia Weaver said.
She called on the military and police to help identify those responsible for circulating the images, as she feared possible mistaken identity and reprisals from authorities.
Her neighbors in Ejisu Apromase corroborated her story, insisting that she had never enlisted in the army and lacked the necessary qualifications for the role.
“She cannot join the Ghana Armed Forces and she is not an officer. She has been working as a hairdresser since then. She does not even have the educational background to join the army,” affirmed a resident.
Another netizen said: “The leadership of the Ghana Armed Forces should investigate this matter and ensure that those behind the distribution of the photos are brought to justice. She has never been an officer. Her highest academic qualification is Form Four, which does not meet her qualifications .”
