Ghana Jollof claimed that she is currently very sick and no court would allow her to be sent back to Ghana.
In a video shared on X, Ghana Jollof was heard saying, “They said I said I want to lead a coup, or I said I would kill the President. If they want me to be extradited, it would not happen just because they show the court a video.
“They would examine the person to see if s/he can do what she is saying. I’m bedridden; my knees don’t work. Are they going to carry me with a stretcher to the court?”.
She added, “My knees are not working, and because of this I’m not able to go to work. It is the government which has been taking care of me. Even when I am going for a review, they send an ambulance and bring me down using a lift… They would not just extradite me; they would examine whether I can do the things I’m accused of.”
