Karen Jacqueline's viral Chale Wote video

Karen Jacqueline went viral in 2019 after a short video of her confronting her boyfriend at the time, Papa Kofi Owusu Kwarteng, inside a hostel room over cheating allegations in the presence of other females emerged on social media.

In the video, the young lady, who was a student at the University of Ghana at the time, in an attempt to punish her boyfriend for cheating in their relationship, brought out a pair of flip-flops, popularly known as Chale Wote in the Ghanaian local setting and used them to slap her partner while ranting.

The video showed Papa Kofi Owusu Kwarteng, who was also believed to be a student of the same university, looking on without attempting to retaliate as Karen repeatedly slapped him with the flip-flops.

The boyfriend sat in a chair with his head slumped into his hands while at least three other people watched his ordeal.

The video sparked backlash and laughter among many Ghanaians on social media, leading Karen Jacqueline to apologise for her bad conduct in another video.

In her apology video, she said she was very angry over Papa Kofi Owusu Kwarteng's conduct and that his unremorseful posture worsened the situation.

The video of Karen slapping her boyfriend with the flip-flops ignited a hilarious social media trend, which saw many Ghanaians mimic the influencer in multiple videos.
