DJ KA opens up on blackmail ordeal

Speaking candidly in the clip, the presenter acknowledged that the private video in question was recorded four years ago.

He admitted it was a mistake but said the greater pain came from what followed its existence: repeated blackmail by individuals who used it against him.

"Even though it was a mistake, now I have no more worry," he said, adding that the blackmail had weighed on him significantly over time.

His message was one of relief rather than regret, suggesting that the public exposure, painful as it was, had at least ended the cycle of threats he had been living under.

The presenter's expression throughout the video captured the emotional toll the ordeal had taken, even as his words pointed towards a new sense of freedom.

Reactions to DJ KA's singing amid saga

The video drew a wave of empathetic responses from followers who found his openness both relatable and moving.

Prophet Ogyaba defends DJ KA

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that Prophet Ogyaba has waded into the controversy surrounding DJ KA, urging the disc jockey to hold his head up and treat the situation as a defining moment rather than a defeat.

In a video posted to his official TikTok page on Thursday, July 23, 2026, the outspoken preacher turned his attention to those fuelling the backlash, accusing Ghanaians of displaying breathtaking hypocrisy over the trending incident.

Prophet Ogyaba said that several people had been sending him links to the viral footage, a behaviour he found troubling given that those same individuals were simultaneously condemning DJ KA publicly.
