The unknown lady who was recently flogged together with her boyfriend at the Wa Naa’s Palace after their nudes video went viral has said that she has left home and cannot go to work as well

According to a TV3 report, the unknown lady lamented the social and psychological impact of the beating that she received.

She disclosed that what was captured in the viral video was only the second leg of her ordeal because the aggressors had beaten her all along after they picked her up to send her to the Palace.

“When the young men came to me, they told me to go with them to the palace and while we were on our way, they kept beating me until we reached the palace,” she told a TV3 reporter.

“Among the crowd, I could hear people yell, flog her, flog her. There was nobody to my rescue. I was severely injured with bruises and blisters on my back and bʋttocks after they fl0gged me 20 times,” she added.

After her release from the Palace, she recounted having to bear the cost of her treatment and how the incident was affecting her because she is unable to return to her place of work.

“I was left to my fate. I had to call a friend who took me to the Wa municipal hospital for treatment and paid for the treatment; I think it was between five hundred and six hundred cedis.”

She told the reporter from her hideout that she has had to abandon her home too. The report noted that she was a ticketing assistant at the Wa Transport Terminal.

“I cannot go back to the station and work after this humiliation and torture. I wish I could get a decent job elsewhere to cater for myself,” she added breaking down in tears during portions of the interview.
