Sam George, the Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovation, has announced the arrest of Rev Dr Ebenezer Conduah over alleged offences involving child sexual abuse and the distribution of pornographic materials involving a minor.
According to Sam George, the suspect, described as a self-styled international marriage counsellor, was arrested on 6th March 2026 through a joint operation by the Cyber Security Authority(CSA) and the Ghana Police Service.
Sam George revealed his arrest reportedly follows the discovery of evidence linking him to the abuse of a 17-year-old minor for at least four years, with the CSA uncovering recordings and online postings linked to international pornographic websites.
In the aftermath of his arrest, the suspect was arraigned before a court and was remanded into custody for three weeks to allow for further investigations.
In a post shared by Sam George on X, on March 8, 2026, he wrote, “In the early hours of 6th March, as the Nation prepared to celebrate our 69th Independence Day, the hardworking team at the

The self-styled radio International marriage counsellor was arrested for offences relating to Child sexual abuse material in violation of ss.62 and 63 of Act 1038. The abuse of a 17-year-old minor had gone on for the past four years.
The CSA team has uncovered recordings and online postings by the accused on international porn websites. He has been put before the Court today and remanded for 3 weeks to allow the team to complete their investigations.
I congratulate our Cyber Security team and reiterate that if you break our cyber laws, we will find you and hold you accountable, no matter who you are. For God and Country”.
Some Ghanaians reacting to the news stated, “Wait a minute.
That means you can actually be arrested when you sleep with a minor, or is it the recording and posting? Someone should explain”.
“Good job, now you can ask your Cyber Security Team and the Ghana Police to use this same energy to end Galamsey”, a netizen added.
A netizen added, “There are somethings u read, and you suddenly get short of words. A whole reverend and an International marriage counsellor who should be a father figure in society? Smh!”
“What about the Television stations that continue to air spiritual people who ask citizens to send money in return for X3 or more of their money?
That thing is really an eye saw honorable”, a netizen added.
In related stories, Sam George, some weeks ago, announced that the Security agencies had arrested 53 Nigerian nationals and rescued 44 young men believed to be victims of a cybercrime operation.
According to Sam George, the cybercrime operations follow coordinated intelligence-led operations targeting suspected centres in Accra.
The victims were allegedly exploited and coerced by kingpins into engaging in various cyber-related criminal activities.
The operation was carried out at multiple locations, including East Legon Hills, Afienya, Kwabenya, Weija, and Tuba, where the victims were found in their apartments operating laptop computers.
The joint team made up of operatives from National Security Operations, the Cyber Security Authority, the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) Headquarters and the National Police SWAT carried out simultaneous raids.
During the operation, nine Nigerian nationals were arrested as suspects believed to be key actors in the cybercrime activities, along with 44 other Nigerian nationals who were rescued and considered to be victims.
A search of the premises led to the recovery of 52 assorted mobile phones, 62 laptop computers, and two pump-action guns.
According to reports, 53 Nigerian nationals were arrested across the five locations, with 17 picked up at Tuba, 11 at Afienya, 10 each at Kwabenya and Weija, and five at East Legon Hills.
The suspect has since been handed over to the Ghana Immigration Service for further investigations after they have been profiled.
