The man at the centre of the explicit video scandal has been identified as Vyacheslav Trahov, also known as Yaytseslav, who is believed to be a Russian national.
The controversy emerged after he posted videos showing himself approaching women on the streets and later taking some of them to his hotel for 'personal encounters'.
Excerpts of the video, which have gone viral, triggered widespread public reactions, with many netizens expressing disappointment over the conduct captured in the footage.
Sharing her frustration in a TikTok video, the young woman asked why some Ghanaian ladies would stoop so low to offer themselves to someone they had just met in town.
"Some of you ladies don't have self-respect. You don't have self-pride, you don't have dignity. Even if you are not loved at home, don't you love yourselves?"
"It is shameful if this is how you behave in real life. I even saw someone with a broom sweeping. If the man is still in Ghana, you guys should put your heads together and report him to the Ghana Police Service."
She condemned the behaviour and advised young people to develop a strong sense of self-pride and dignity.
