Ghanaian social media personality and musician DavidoGH has shared a petition addressed to the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) of the Ghana Police Service, following the ongoing controversy surrounding the alleged arrest of entertainer Showboy.
In the petition, DavidoGH claims that Showboy, whose real name is Sam Safo, has been harassing him online for several years, using social media platforms to target and intimidate him. The document urges the CID to investigate the matter and take appropriate legal action to protect him from further harassment.
This development comes shortly after a viral video circulated online, showing Showboy in the custody of law enforcement officers. The clip prompted widespread discussion and concern among fans and followers, though the Ghana Police Service has yet to issue an official statement clarifying the reasons for his alleged arrest.
DavidoGH’s move highlights how online disputes involving public figures can escalate into formal complaints. By bringing the matter to the attention of the CID, he is seeking legal intervention to address what he describes as ongoing harassment that has persisted for more than three years.
Supporters of both DavidoGH and Showboy have reacted strongly on social media. While some have expressed solidarity with DavidoGH, emphasizing the importance of protecting individuals from online abuse, others have called for transparency regarding Showboy’s alleged arrest and the circumstances surrounding it.
The petition reflects a broader trend in Ghana’s entertainment industry, where disagreements between high-profile personalities often spill over onto social media, attracting public attention and sometimes prompting formal legal action. Observers note that petitions such as this underscore the need for clear rules and enforcement mechanisms to prevent online harassment while protecting freedom of expression.
As of now, the Ghana Police Service has not provided an official response to the petition or confirmed details about Showboy’s arrest. The situation continues to generate discussion across entertainment news platforms and social media communities, as fans await clarity on the legal status of the entertainer and the outcome of the petition submitted by DavidoGH.
