Ghanaian influencer and entrepreneur Adjoa Tee has backtracked on an earlier statement about only dating fraud boys and scammers.

Adjoa Tee faces backlash for scammer comments

At the recently held 2025 edition of the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMAs), Adjoa Tee, in an exclusive interview with TV3, clarified her statement on the Rants, Bants and Cofessions podcast.

Slaying in her green figure-hugging star-studded gown, Adjoa Tee apologised to her fans and Ghanaians and noted that was not what she meant.

She noted that after making those comments, many people were not happy, as they took to social media to blast her.

"Ghanaians, I want to use this opportunity to apologise. I did say that, but with the criticism and backlash, please, I am sorry," she told renowned media house, TV3.

In the same TV3 interview, the owner of The Northern Braids Bar kept apologising and noted she was remorseful and deeply regretted the comments she made about scammers.

"I was just trying to say that I do not mind dating somebody like that. But I realised that it did not go well with people at all and I am very sorry. Just know from my heart, I am sorry. I am still the girl that you love."

When the interviewer asked her whether her recent ex-boyfriend, Big Paradise, was also a fraud boy and scammer, she said no and that he was a promoter and hype man.

Reactions to Adjoa's apology on scammer comments

While the main takeaway from the whole episode was the morality surrounding dating someone involved in scamming and fraud, many people were fixated on a mistake she made during the interview where she said "backslash" instead of backlash.

Others were also disappointed that she did not own up to the statements she made on the podcast.
