A 24-year-old mason and self-proclaimed fetish priest, Emmanuel Frimpong, has found himself in hot water after spreading false information about VIP Jeoun Company Limited’s operations.

The young man was arrested following the circulation of a video he made on social media.

In the video, Emmanuel Frimpong falsely alleged that the company’s drivers were required to undergo a ritual that involved being buried alive in a casket before being allowed to operate the company’s buses. However, the National Investigation Bureau (NIB) in collaboration with the police swiftly tracked down and apprehended the accused individual.

Subsequently, Emmanuel Frimpong was brought before the Kwadaso Circuit Court. Presiding Judge Stephen Kumi expressed concern over the potential harm the accused’s actions could cause to the company’s reputation and the public. As a result, the mason-turned-fetish priest has been remanded into police custody and is expected to appear in court again on April 26, 2024.

Following the court proceedings, VIP Jeoun Company Limited’s General Manager, Adakabre Frimpong Manso, issued a stern warning. He emphasized that the company would take legal action against anyone who tarnishes its reputation with baseless allegations.

Manso highlighted the recent trend of individuals using social media to make misleading and exaggerated claims against VIP’s operations. He stressed that while the company welcomes constructive criticism to enhance its services, unsubstantiated accusations that could negatively impact its operations will not be tolerated.

Therefore, the VIP Jeoun Company Limited is urging the general public to refrain from spreading false information about the company and reiterated its commitment to upholding ethical practices. It is clear that VIP is a law-abiding and responsible company that values transparency and accountability in its operations.
