According to the "Keteke" actress, the incident happened while she was on set around the National Film and Television Institute (NAFTI) premises in Accra.
She made the claims in a lengthy blog post Monday, January 22, with the caption: "The abuse of POWER, WOMEN and how I was physically assaulted by a security official".
Narrating her ordeal, she said they were on set shooting an upcoming movie when 'a man with a walkie talkie jumped out' and asked them to put a stop to the shoot because they do not have the permission to do so.
