The 27-year-old mother recently told ‘News-One’ she was only a scammer and that she decided to engage in a wild public deceit so as to get a place to lay her head at a time her neighbours were wrongly accusing her of having HIV.
“I was known as the HIV ambassador. The story I shared in the past years was a fusion of my story and the stories of others. The truth of the matter is, I was never infected with HIV,” she said.
She told Nana Aba Anamoah on TV3’s New Day programme on Monday December 15, 2014 that: “I don’t think it’s a crime not to live with HIV.”
